I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

This is a beauty, I cannot believe the detail you have gone to here, a real pleasure to look at.

Moostang, thanks. That is my plan for painting, round 2.

Looks like the real McCoy!

WOW!!!

My son is only nine so anytime I raided his stash it would cost me another lego design kit. Of course, I would pick it out so that a future Guillow build would benefit.

Try airbrushing the same olive drab first inside the masked off areas. This will be the color that bleeds and actually will seal the edges. Then go to white. I usually had great results doing this.

I steal my son's Lego parts all the time ...good thinking!

I've never seen an engine built like that before! You just took it to a whole new level for me. I look forward to your next set of photos.

Damn!

When I assembled the exhaust system, I deliberately let each piece melt into the next with the liquid cement. This left a reasonable facsimile of weld seams, just like a full size Continental engine.

I still need to add color and some wiring, but I'm quite pleased with the look so far.

Plane was stripped, patched, primed and now prepped for new graphics. I will lay down the image colors and then add the stencil. Olive drab will then be the last coat. A trick I didn't use previously, but will do this time is, once the stencil is set in place, spray that color over the stencil. It helps to seal the edges and prevents underspray. Then spray with the top coat, in this case olive drab. Stay tuned.

You can compare the kit, wood cylinder with the new engine. Like I wrote, most of the engine block will be hidden so I concentrated on the cylinders and manifolds. There should be two rocker arms, but I didn't have enough room so I just used one under each cylinder. It is enough to add complexity to the overall look.
