Did some scratchbuild on the doors which give acces to the backside of the BMW 801 engine.

Do these doors come with the engine or have you done a total scratch build on them (as in cut them out and made new ones)?

I did cut them out and detailed the inner of those.. Eduard should do a good job to produce these as well in the engine set!

Looks great Rowdy! This brings life to the engine! 

The fixing is done with Tamiya-Tape?       I use the same method, looks very convincing. 

You have a pair of good eyes mate!

 

Thanks!

Cool Alan!

Its a good buy! And a real great addition to the Revell kit, as the base of this kit is quit good on it self.

 

looking forward to see your working going by!

Some engine work!

This is a complete understatement...

I can fully appreciate the work involved in getting to this stage, as I have all of this still to do on my build. My only criticism... More photos please!

Thanks sir!

 

Following your work as well on the cilinders of the BMW engine, try to do the same as you ;) 

 

Many thanks for your great words! (All of you of course!)

Did some paint test on this one today.

 

I used Mr.Paint RLM 74 with a shade of RLM 70 on the panel lines.

For the RLM 75 I used al little drop of black to highlight the panel lines.

 

I also used black primer and choose not to marble this one because this particular aircraft had a really worn camo on it.

Please note that the varnish and washes needs to be done ;)

Let the pics speak for them selfs, any comments and tips are welcome!
