Very nice work on your engine and interior. I really like the color/tone of your wood interior! The blonde wood look is excellent.

Bartekk,
   Welcome to our Forum, you bring very impressive work to the screen! Your engine looks more like a larger 1:32 Scale given the excellent detail and the wood effect and colour is really pretty to look at, keep those updates coming.
Cheers,
Lance

The wrapped insulation on the engine is a nice touch, looking good.

Splendid work on the interior of the Albatros so far Bartekk, I really like the darker wood colour, it is very impressive, and your engine is brilliant. You are doing a great job on the base, the model will look fantastic sitting on the timber planks.

  Bartek,
Your base is something else my friend. The hard stand planking is an excellent touch. What type of wood did you use?
