Lol, well I'm squeezing in 30 mins here and there. I've managed to get the engines all cleaned up and dry fitted together, cant wait to start slapping paint on these!

 

[nicholassagan]

Hot shit dude. Those engines look rad. Will you be doing some burnt/heated metal treatment on those thrust shields?

 

[Big-John]

Love all that detail dude. Looks like its going to be pure joy to paint ;D

 

[Jaitea]

Hot poop dude. Those engines look rad. Will you be doing some burnt/heated metal treatment on those thrust shields?

Yeah that's a good idea Nick, I've tried it before but that was on a 1/12 motorbike! And thanks to the rest of you guys. I've nearly cleaned up all the parts, still a lot to do but I thought I'd dry fit it all together to see what it looks like:

 

[Junkie]

Looks great. So the rear is the right side in this photo?

 

[nicholassagan]

Wow! She sure came together quick!! Well, it seems that way anyhow. Any troubles during assembly?
