Hi all well after an update on my samsung tab s2 it has made it totally useless for posting on forums so I'm now stuck with this incredibly slow and clumsy laptop so here is the next installment. i was following silver911 build of this and decided to emulate his enhancement of the exhaust joins and copied his use of aluminium foil on them.

also I've added the thickening where the oxygen sensors go

(its made from the phillips screw covers from a bedroom unit)
made a start on the engine too. Added some weathering as well. Put a rule in the last pic to give an idea of the size of this beast.

[Guest]

Because I know the size....if not, it looks so real!

[james pithouse]

looking brilliant ken keep the pics coming

[papa 695]

Really liking the work on the exhaust Ken, and that engine looks very big.

[Mr Bowcat]

That's coming together very nicely Ken.

[Guest]

Made a start on the exhaust valve and made up the spring hangers soon be ready for priming.

[Guest]

Hi all I've started weathering the exhaust I'm using Uschi metal powders and a combination of copper and blue grey dry brushed on, still more to do but it looks promising



Added some more engine details like the generator wires
