Yeah well I work with the latest and greatest HP printers.

I thought I had seen one but going through their website I can't find it now.

Building a kit from your stash is like cutting a head off a Hydra, two more take it's place.

Hey, that is interesting!  I love engine models.  I am not familiar with that company- will have to look into those folks.

BTW, just posted some pics of the Hispano Suiza 8A I am working on, in the scratchbuilding forum.

Sure wish Williams Bros would re-release more of their engine models- all they have released so far are ones I have already built.  Sure want to build their Wright.

I just woundere because your instructions look much more professional than mine did.

O, a Radial, where did you see that. The 3 they have were released about 5 years ago, i thought they had stopped doing them.

I do hope its an Fw 190 engine.

Thanks guys, I'm looking forward to it.

Bish,

The instructions came on a CD in PDF and had to print them off, like your DB I'm sure. Thanks for building that, it never would have occurred to me to build one. The Radial they are coming out with (don't remember which one) looks interesting too.

Looking forward to seeing this one Steve. Did those instructions come with the kit or have you printed those off.

I am going to get the BMW 003 kit in a couple of months and will be building that later this year. Will be nice to see all 3 of their engines on here.

1/18 HpH Packard Merlin Engine COMPLETE
Posted by modelcrazy on Saturday, January 23, 2016 1:08 AM
I started a 1/18 scale Merlin engine from HpH. It's resin and has quite a bit of flash but not difficult to clean. There are quite large gaps at the Joints that can be filled without much hassle.
There is quite a bit of opportunity for some major detail.
