I used "Scale Bash" to build my V2 from an Estes Silver Comet kit and a purchased nose cone. It was a big help, especially with the fin patterns and the painting scheme. I would highly recommend the book to anyone interested in trying scale modeling with easily found materials.

Even though the title of this great book is "Scale Bash", don't put aside the notion of getting it if you're not into scale. There is some great information and building techniques that leaves you wanting more. Whether you want to tackle your first scale project or just pick some great building pointers, this book is a must have!! Well Done.
