 Nicely done Steve, the engine is a fair weight now with all the major parts added but still lots more detail yet to add the injector rails are a finely tuned work of art.  Current builds:-C57,Zero, Lamborghini Countach, Caldercraft HMS Agamemnon,Robi,R2-D2, MFH Cobra .

Yes it is. It looks fantastic. I must admit I was a bit worried when I got the block back in pack 1 as it was just a lump of plastic and didn't know how good it was going to look. Looking forward to adding to it. Senna mclaren mp4/4 build complete mp4/4 build http://forum.model-space...spx?g=posts&t=12029

That's looking fantastic Steve. I can't wait to get started on my build.
Very nice way of storing all the parts to keep them as dust free as possible.

Thanks for your comments. Much appreciated. At the 3/4 mark now so thought I'd put it all together and have to say it looks immense. The photos really don't do it justice.       Senna mclaren mp4/4 build complete mp4/4 build http://forum.model-space...spx?g=posts&t=12029

Lovely work Steve - well done!!
Putting it all together and getting a brief glimpse of what it might look like when completed is something most of us can't resist doing and is often a nice little moment that I think is a kind of reward for all of your work done on the project to date? It is a very satisfying moment indeed isn't it?
Well done again, looks great!!

Nicely done. I found the tapes had to be right first time when applying as the glue gets less sticky if its moved about too much Current builds:-C57,Zero, Lamborghini Countach, Caldercraft HMS Agamemnon,Robi,R2-D2, MFH Cobra .
