Been a while in the planning stages and it's time to get started. There'll be a few changes along the way making this build a little different.
Starting with the Merlin Engine. I built a stand since she'll more than likely be sitting a long time. I ordered some Tamiya Metal Primer yesterday that I should have ordered 2 weeks ago. Cheers

Aaaahhh Sooooo!
I always love the level of detail on these bigger models!!! I built the 1/32 FW-190D9 and I only added half the detail I could have. That Merlin looks great so far.
Hi;
You know , with all that detail on the Merlin , I fully expected cylinder liners too ! T.B.
That's amazing! I'll be following for sure!

Today, I made the Port Side Exhaust Shields out of Aluminum sheet. Don't ask how many I made. I'm probably going to make a new outer shroud. I don't like the way the exhaust holes came out.
Now that's something new. I've not seen anyone scratch build those pieces before. I think they look better than good, by the way, and you won't even have to paint them lol.
Made a new Port Outer Shroud, and the Starboard Side Shrouds.
Well, all I can say is with those shrouds, we know what we will see with the rest of it. Great work on everything so far.
Keep a log and submit the build to FSM for an article.
Started assembling the Engine today after adding a few more details like drilling out the cylinders for spark plugs.
That's neat! I have yet to come across a model like that.
Detailed the Ignition Harness today.
Added the Gear Reduction, Ignition Harness's, Rocker Covers, Supercharger, & Intercooler.
Hey !
Where's the cylinder liners . ? Can't turn the thing over without them and you know it ! Besides I love the smell of burning Avgas in the morning ! Very nice work so far . Now Back to work Grasshopper ! T.B.
