Just a couple of progress shots. First up one i call Boom headshot! Then a simple Side shot: And the repaint of the rod ends, sadly the wires is becoming a pain in the arse, I may have to try a alternative method of making the coiled look. Any suggestions? =D |

If you wind the tubes with rope, string or plastic wire you can glue it on as you go so it doesn't move. And then paint it whatever colour you like. Meanwhile - it's looking mean!  |

Thanks Mr. Clough!
Fixed the coils, just took some patience and a bit of rewinding. I'll have more pics later i hope, changed something around, shes in the home stretch =D
I hope HAC is still interested in helping, as i am nearing the pack phase of this. =)

Here you go.. just about it. I think the only thing needed iis the wiring from the control box, but that might be beyind my abilities in Bryce.. Added safety valves, and engine exhaust piping to this version..  Cheers Harold |

Thnking on it, I'm sure, based on your work I have seen so far ,that you could easily biuld something based on this. You might have to simplify the details, but the basic design should be doable. Let me think on it a bit more...
Cheers

Sorry mate, But in recompense, I'll pass on the old tale of the apprentice who spent the whole day carefully picking an oiling wick out of a length of pipe. "It's no wonder it needed looking at." He said. "The 'ole thing were bunged up wi' fluff!" Dr. Q. |

What appears to be changed is that brass teardrop-y gimcracks were mounted above the white gizmo on the left.
Near as I can tell, at any rate. CK |

HAC no need to rerender unless you want to If you feel up to it (as you have gone above and beyond already!) The main tanks would be more a gun metal color, black frame, pipes would be copper, brass fittings is fine, contorl box could be black or leave it be. Stacks are fine gold/brass the big green back piece is that the water tank? If so that being back would be great. |

UPDATE TIME =D Did a bit of detail work and painting, shes almost done now. Covered the rear cover with leather, added a fuel line, and a cloth covered wire from the kill switch. Aslo painted the smaller fuel tank, and the coupling. All the copper pipe has been soldered in the back. I will be off to get some styrene today to finish up the details, then i need to finish the front half up and she will be done =). Oh added a makers marks also thos it's a bit hidden =D |
