Correct, I cut out the shape originally for one iten or part and then just kept adding.

Great idea Andy!

Quite simply stunning.....I shall now crawl into a corner and yet again consider the futility of my modelling existence.... And quite possibly life itself......

You’d better hurry up John. The corner could get quite crowded with such skills on display!!!

Tie downs almost done, pic later.
And many thanks for the comments.
Mike.

Update.
As said on Friday, here is a pic of some of the tie downs.

And the engine mesh...

Then the roof hatch had some detailing added, seen here just before priming...


And finally the re-worked exhaust pipe with new heat shielding and top half is a new pipe...

This is rough and ready as the originals did show some wear and tear.
And that is it for now.
Mike.
