Again, it's bin a while since i posted the last progress......

A few weeks ago i started to prime all the part's regarding the cockpit. After that i used Tamiya XF-59 Desert Yellow for the base color, prior for adding the woodgrain texture.



Afterwards, i added to all part's a woodgrain texture with oil paint Raw Umber. I used the same technique as i did for my Roland.

I don't have pic's of all the part's, just some of the side and instrument panel.







Today, i did some detail painting and some decal handling regarding the instrumentpanel and engine mount.





Engine mount went smooth on the side frame's of the fuselage.





Also oil tank and machinegun bullets case where glued onto the frame, still they need some wheatering and detail painting.





The fueltank, painted in XF-82 Ocean Grey.

I missed this thread somehow. Let me join now and express my congrats - fantastic engine and the interior with engine bearers is so, too.

Hello Danny:

Your work with the engine looks great.  The extra detail with the plug wires really enhances the appearance of the engine.  The interior is coming along nicely with your wood tones looking exceptional.

Best
