Thanks Guys Im Blushing!!!
The engine and formers/framework are all scratchbuilt! as is the firewall etc The tamiya kit had to have extensive surgery to allow it all to fit! The cockpit has a few extra bits but Tamiya provide quite a nice bit of detail already! The piping is made from solder , copper wire and fuse wire! lots of other plastic bits came from plastruct! The plan is she will be on a diorama base with a Mechanic doing some maintanence on the engine. Assorted pipes cables and bits scattered around! |
