turbo 847 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Great engines all! Thanks Tom for starting the thread and Maru for the suggestion - engines and cockpits can really be little models within a model! Here's my R-2800 Double Wasp from Tamiya's magnificent F4U-1A kit.

Finn 2,090 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 (edited) Found this on a 3D printing site: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4723122 you'd have to scale it down to the size you want as the full scale makes it 12" in dia. edit: click on the links under the Tags section for more 3D printed engines and parts.

DonH 1,720 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 11 hours ago, Uncarina said: Michael, Don, your engines look awesome! With three of my current and upcoming build subjects powered by Merlins, I saved your work for reference. Thanks for posting! Cheers, Tom Thanks Tom, I added the extras to the engine based on drawings for the Merlin. The great thing about the Tamiya kit is I sized all the extra parts from the drawings and they fit the kit parts like a glove - well done Tamiya-san. Let me know if you need any details and I will try and dig out my archives. Uncarina and MARU5137 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Padubon 1,234 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 I like this idea. Engines are my favorite part of a build. This one is for a future build of a Corsair: This other one is for G. Gladiator: Gazzas, Out2gtcha, scvrobeson and 11 others 14 Link to post Share on other sites
BloorwestSiR 11,824 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 It's mostly OOB but not the usual colour combo for a Merlin. turbo, Buster99, Out2gtcha and 10 others 13 Link to post Share on other sites

chuck540z3 9,077 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 (edited) I've got a few Tamiya Spitfire Mk IX Tamiya P-51D And assuming jet engines are OK, Trumpeter A-10C with Sierra Hotel resin engines in heavily modified shrouds Kitty Hawk F-5E. All of the raised rivets are Archer decal rivets Tamiya F-4E. Lots of Eduard PE glued onto resin nozzles. They make much better ones now. And probably my best engine nozzles ever on the Tamiya F-15C. 330 tiny photo-etch and kit parts glued onto kit and Two Mikes nozzles. Now that the fantastic ResKit versions are available, this is probably a waste of time.
