Many thanks Michael, Martin, Ron, Rick and Przemol for all the very kind comments.
You are quite right Michael saying that the missing components for the engine is unforgiveable, the engine is fully exposed so must be appropriately detailed. Some of these aircraft flew without the radiator/engine fairing which exposed the engine even further. As you already know I enjoy detailing my engines so I will be doing my best to detail this particular engine to be as close to the original as possible.
Ron, looking forward to seeing your engine once you have it completed, should be a spectacular kit.
Des.
