Good stuff Polux.

Your exhausts look good to me. You probably already saw this picture I posted in my Typhoon thread showing exhausts on a modern war bird run on WW2 standard fuel, that is heavily "leaded".



Cheers

Thank you Steve for join in

How do you think about this new colour?

Maybe with a dry brush with "lead" looks better

I think it's important to keep the very light deposit on all but the first (front) stub. I believe this is caused by the lead content of the petrol and has a chemical name I should probably know.........but don't

You've already got a good looking set of exhausts, just have a little play with them. Maybe dry brush a very light grey? Just a suggestion.

Cheers

Oh my God...

Observing the photo, I notice, that I have done everything erroneous...

Will try your tip Steve, light grey or white dry brush. And a dark colour on the end of each exhaust.

Have to said, I'm quite afraid, they are a very little pieces!

Cheers
