Hi,

 

I recently started to work on the Pratt and Whitney R-2800 resin kit from Brassin, to add details to the 1/32 Tam Corsair.

 

Parts cut from the resin sprue.

 

 

 

 

Some parts:

 

 

Original spark plugs are not bad, but... details can be added.

 

 

 

New connector.

 

 

Cylinders head drilled to receive a "real" tube instead of the PE one of the Barssin kit.
