The interior looks great.  Excellent woodgrain.  I'm sure the detailing on the engine will enhance it immensely.
Seems like the radiator wouldn't get much air back there.


Thanks.
And indeed, the air access to the ŕadiator here was limited and that is why for the late 160hp Beardmore additional cooling openings were drilled in that plywood wall behind the pilot seat.

Great start on the engine details Przemol! The way you handled blending in that rear bulkhead seam is incredible! Simply Brilliant work.

The bulkhead (and cockpit area) worked out beautifully, Prze! Love it.

Nice job on the seam on the interior Prez!  The engine components treatment you are giving them will pay off as the engine is right there and very exposed.  The copper color too is a real eye catcher and all that detail will really shine.

Thank you for watching and commenting.

And in the recent days I worked on the Beardmore, also adding some missing instalations. Now it is basically ready to be weathered, installed and have attached a few controls.

That engine is spectacular. What do you use for the wiring.

Sensational :o
I was not able to put more details on my 1/16 engine. Perfectly done!
The cockpit is also best in class, that will be a fantastic model.

Cheers,
Frank

That is one stunning looking engine PrzemoL!

Can you tell us a little bit about the painting process?

Willem

The main bits were airbrushed before assembly in main colours. Some bits required additional touches with secondary colours, these were done with 00 brush.
I have used Vallejo acrylics. From Metal Color: copper, dark aluminium for steel, duraluminium for aluminium. The other colours are from Model Color: brass, black, brown for cable leads, sand for cables, khaki green for added water lines to he carbs.

That engine is spectacular. What do you use for the wiring.

I prefer soldering wire, I have it in 0.22, 0.25, 0.38 and 0.56mm thickness.
