Lovely leather seat padding. I also really like your engine! The burnt metal effect looks awesome as do the plugs!

Excellent work on the engine Guy, the added details make all the difference, and the seat is superb.

Afternoon all,

Plodding along.. Got the fuse together (finally!). Super fit as usual. I really like the way they've done this with the separate top and bottom panels. Seams are my Achilles heel, so this is particularly welcome for me  ::)

Thanks Bob,

By the way, would anyone that has this kit consider sending me a spare prop? There are two in the box - I can't find mine and I think I've thrown them out with a sprue...  :P

Happy to pay all expenses paid and more! PM me if you're able to assist...

Thanks..

Neat and tidy work on the interior! Looks excellent! Sorry I can't help with the prop but I am sure someone will come through for you!

Guy which version will you be building? I have two that I will build up differently so I can send you the prop I won't be using, for my current build. I will have a Garuda Propeller spare, let me know if you want it!

Also loving what you have done so far!
