Hi Guys,

Did a tiny bit more to the old Beardmore, so should be getting
on with the Fee pretty soon. All the best from NZ

Gulp Dave! Amazing. Here's me just thinking about what shortcuts I can make in relation to a different engine. I feel a bit ashamed now.

Best wishes
Nigel

It comes down to patience Ernie  ;) Lots of it. I learned to
always, if possible , set aside a bit of time each, or almost,
day to indulge in the good old hobby. It relieves the stress
and keeps the blood pressure down. As long as you dont
loose bits to the carpet monster that is  8).

Thanks Ernie . . . . I am in awe of your build by the way.

Good one Sir

Cheers

Dave

Spectacular engine Dave, your attention to detail is absolutely amazing and you have created an engine that looks just like the real thing. I will be following your build very closely when I start my Fe2b.

Wow what a beauty her engine is my friend. Just add fuel,oil and water for cooling and she's ready to cough to life.

Hi Dave

I've been in a deep modeller's funk for the last 4 months or so, and have about half a dozen unfinished kits - including Eduard's Spad and Biff and my long suffering WNW Tripe - on the shelf. But last week I broke out of the doldrums by starting my WNW Fee. Today as the first major autumn storm of the season began to hit Vancouver Island, I splashed a bit of colour on the engine bits and will start bashing them together later in the week.

Dave, that engine is superb and I plan to copy your work shamelessly as best I can. Am looking forward to more pics!
Cheers,
John

Dave, just lovely. I just can't believe how these WNW kits lend themselves to additional detailing. I'm guessing PJ is happy to see his products used thusly.
