Want to allow that silver from the rings to show through for that metallic look. It was at this point I fabricated extra cooling fins for the exhaust side by cutting small sections of extra rings over a small piece of balsa. Then painted a flat gray as seen on the real engine. Besides, it kind of highlights the added detailing anyway. |

It only took a dash of Spackling compound on top of each end to simulate the valve covers. Again, a quick build without the added hassles of vacuum forming (of which I don't have anyway). I simply cut some extra rings in half and glued them in between the "V." |
