Looking good Christian! That is some sharp building there.
Spade, I like it. It does fit.

Thanks for looking in guys . Finally getting around to working on this one again .
Actually more like reorientation to all the bits.
Nothing serious, but the main flight component are glued and polished . The engines nacelles will need a good bit more attention .
Thanks for looking . Cheers, Christian B)

I have set off to build the engine nacelles . Surprised at how much work was required to make them resemble the real thing 
Cleaned up the the oil cooler intake and exhaust to the oil coolers . Only the right one ( picture ) is done so far .
Screen was added to simulate the cooler core.
The cooler door was also added.
I filed the air intake round and primed the inside . Surprised to find the red primmer on anaircraft.:hmmm
The yellow wire will be a pipe that goes to the rear of the exhaust pipes . A brass pipe was also added to this side .
You will notice that the top panel does not fit to the nacelle as one would expect from a Hasegawa kit :idonno
Does anyone make this big of a mess on such a small project or this peculiar to me ?
I still have another engine to do, so there's no point in cleaning up yet

Engine looks good! Nice added details.
As for the mess... What mess? My workbench is twice this "messy" when I'm working on my small projects!
Looking forward to seeing more.

Neat, so what's the pipe going forward into the exhaust, the yellow one?

Yup. This is what the kit suggest.
This is where it comes from . Don't know if it's coming or going but it's a different place.

Shouldn't be a problem, I usually have a mess .
Actually it was twice as bad before I got it mounted to the wing

Thanks for the kind words . I thought I saw too much detail on my table for such a small job .
Actually it got twice as bad as that.

Very nice! I had never noticed it before when building the He-111. Note to self: pay more attention!
Excellent job, as usual. Looking forward to the next chapters! :drinks

I really was too busy trying to build to think about this pipe . :fencing
Very good answer . Quite logical . I remember reading about these things while still in school but the jet age pretty well changed things ... Now days you need coolers and intercoolers to change the hot air coming from the compressor section :frantic
