I had to slightly deviate from the real thing here for some reasons...

 

Hopefully more progress by the end of the weekend ;)

Hi guys,

 

Rich,

yes, I recived the CD and there are some very usefull pics on it !

I thought I told you via PM or email (don't remember). Did I forgot to tell?  

If so, I am really, really sorry.

Many thanks my friend  ;

 

Ron,

exactly what I think about this model.

To be honest, I do not quite understand why Tamiya has left this "behind the engine" area empty on their kit...

Maybe one aftermarket kit would be welcome to fill up this great model .... :innocent:

 

;)

Rich,

if you pass by, my deepest appologies, looks like I intendeed to but forgot let you know that the CD landed OK...

It has arrived on friday and I was a bit scared cause we are having sort of heavy rain here at the moment and my mail box is not quite waterproof... but everything is OK.

Lots of the pics I actually already got by browsing the links you gave us ;) but there are some very valuable extras that I did not have, especially on the area I am working on... and they are most welcome   :)

Many thanks and sincerly sorry again buddy !

Will still need some work but I started to turn my attention to something else... the back end of the engine/compressor/carburator:

 

Sooo... we got mushrooms  :)

Loic, you rock !  :) When Tamiya does finally release the 1A or D version, I hope you have the  aftermarket designed and ready for casting so that we mere mortals can install the parts and admire your work on on own planes. :)

 Keep up the great effort,

 Paul
