Loic Posted January 22, 2012 Author Posted January 22, 2012 ... and the completed part: It is just above 21mm in real life and it has been a treat working on this tiny bit. That's what it looks like in the middle of the V (might not be properly positionned thought): Well, it has been difficult to resist the will to do all the high pressure lines pipes "spider web" that connect this unit to the cylindres ... That will be for some other days... Thanks for following guys
Ripaman Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 This is just supberb modelling my friend, love every update, could you put a ruler by the side so I can see how long it is. This then I can visulize. You do know now that once you start this, the whole plane will need this attention for detail Regards Richard
Loic Posted January 22, 2012 Author Posted January 22, 2012 Hi Richard, here is a pic with a ruler and a 1€ cent coin as ref. I hope this will do the job. Thanks for following
Guest Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 As usual, my friend, fantastic scratch work! I really am enjoying all this!..........Harv
LSP_Ron Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 Man, I shiver to imagine what would be produced if you and Richard worked on a project together.........
Daywalker Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 Just spent the last hour or so reading through this one, shame on me for not stopping by more frequently. This is not simply model building, it is pure artistry. I'll be glued to this thread now waiting for more updates! Loic 1
Loic Posted January 22, 2012 Author Posted January 22, 2012 Thanks again for all your support my friends, you all are the best No modelling for me tonight, my fingers they need some rest !
Kagemusha Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 Wow that engine really looks superb, and it's not even painted yet. As has been said I do think it would be a shame if you didn't get some copies cast, even if it were just for yourself. Thank you very much for sharing!
A.Wolf Grant Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 < picks himself off the floor only to faint again > Man, that's extraordinary work Loic - have you got 1/32 sized hands to be able to do this kind of thing??? Obant.
Loic Posted January 25, 2012 Author Posted January 25, 2012 Hi guys, small update today as I had very limited time for modelling those last days (plus I had a major internet connexion break down on monday ). I did add the last details to the fuel pump unit and did mate it with what I understand as being an oil somthing unit ... Anyway, here are 2 pics of this unit as well as 2 drawings of the fuel system that I used as a base for my scratch building work (courtesy of google). Thanks for following guys
blackbetty Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 your detailing is second to none, loic i have problems even seeing that size of stuff
Jamme Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 Hello Loic. Really nice. I would like to make such Scratchbuilding. Cheers, Jamme
WrongWay Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 Simply amazing work Loic! That engine is just stunning. Keep up the fantastic work. Cheers, Don
fozzy Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 So so good Loic ..What you can't do with plastic is not worth mentioning!
