Next up the engines and cowlings...

 

Starting with the Eduard aftermarket PE for the engines and cowlings...

I'm not happy at all with the 'cowling formers'

Looks nothing like the real ones...

Well they had come off again, and some new ones from scratch...

Also added the firewall/bulkhead behind the engine, as I want to display it open...

Man, that looks fantastic!   The paint and weathering are spot on IMHO.    The engines really do look great. Have you ever thought about opening up the cowls?

 

The KHM kit OOB cowl openings are quite a bit too small.
