Very cool! The exhaust pipes need to be painted, no?

All those tiny parts would need an airbrush! All that cleaning

Hi there

It's a few years on from your excellent thread on the building of this model. Are you able to send me a link for the photo bucket page with all your photos? Best Steve (New Zealand)

Hi Steve, i stopped using Photobucket a few years ago when they tried to hold everyone to ransom, i switched to Flickr and i pay them now with subscription without a ransom. I will send you the link, thanks Darren.
