Very nice build so far. I was only just thinking this would be one of those items that a set of time lapse photos would work really well for. You could tak these views from the same location each time and then at the end of your build would be able to run then as a slide show with a short time between pictures. It would be an awesome thing to watch. Hope you get lots of enjoyment from the rest of your build. Happy Modelling
BUILDING: Hachette Spitfire Mk 1A, Constructo Mayflower

It just occured to me - in your last picture it seems, that the black part (don`t know the english word for it) attached to the backward cooler is mounted the wrong direction - as far as i understand it!
It should point to the back, not forward!Greetings,
Walter

It should point to the back, not forward! Yeah. I only realised the turbo intakes were back to front when i saw a picture in the magazine. Thanks birdaj2. I did the same for the MP4-23 and I'm doing it on the Nissan Gtr as well. Makes a nice time lapse slideshow.

Hi Steve. Sorry didn't see your post. Can't remember which parts were finicky now. 9 is more finicky though specially as I was working off the pdf kindly supplied by Tomick! Life saver as it was too detailed to give it a go off the build diary! Heres pack 9 anyway. Really starting to come together and almost half way!

Pack 12. Real complex one piecing everything together with all the fabric hoses. I found fitting the hose to the brake reservoir after gluing the bits in place on the gearbox better as they were easy to pop off whilst trying to get it all in place.
