mark31 Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 i need a side project beside the ferrari So i decided to pull this one out. My first kit from zm so will see how this will go. a few books instructions the build start with the engines and not with the pit i have decided to build them one at a time. Progress so far still needs weathering and a lot of pieces. thats it for now Mark 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlrwestSiR Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 +2 but mine's not in the stash so much as it's scattered in various locations around my bench. Need to get back to it one day. Mark, you can glue some of the engine panels on and still be able to remove other ones if you want to be able to display the engines when you're done.

Peterpools Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 Mark Awesome kit and looking forward to following your build. I started mine a while back but decided to hold up on it until the winter as my chemo and it's side effects just held me back from working on the engines details and doing justice to the kit. Nice start on the engines ... for the most part ZM has the color call outs correct. Keep 'em comin Peter 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattFoley Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 This kit took the wind out of me. I currently have it in primer coat pending my getting the desire to finish it. For all of the detail, there is so much never to be seen and the care of installing sub assembly upon sub assembly takes plenty of patience. The one item I was really missing was the darn SWS Book. Impossible to find them now. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
