Hey guys, I'm standing right here.   ;D

I have contacted T about this topic.  I think the Noop needs one.

Setting a side the other bits for the time being I focused on adding the smaller details before I get my nails down . ( I'm pampering myself ) Smaller detail can be hard to work with . I added the induction pipes using those items form junked Dragon Fokker Dr.1 builds . Lead wires are added as well with the pushrods still remaining and additional detail painting .

Frohe Weihnachten! Terri,
Little by little this will come together as another of your unique builds.

Push rods are now in place . Went crossed eyed a few times but the detailing is done and not to shabby considering on what I had to work with and it still fits inside the cowl so I will tag this one as positive ! Have a bit of detailing painting left . But for now Will focus on finishing off the fuselage details including the cowl and making the struts .

A wash on the crankcase will really make that pop.

Hello Ken ,

A wash did add life with the rest of the detailing painting completed . All this was sealed with semi clear .

Thanks Ken  :)

Bit more progress moving forward with the Struts completed , start on the axle flairing and the legs cut . The engine frame work should poke through slots in the cowl . I don't have the right tool to cut these in and the cowl will still need hours of thinning it down which I'm not doing . So to represent this detail I heat stretched some half round rod to the size needed .
