Alan G FörfattareChristian. The 1:32 Red 2 & 4 D11 conversions aren't cheap so i'll get them one at a time when money allows. But i'll start with a D9 first. I have some AM bits to add to one of them.

Alan G FörfattareDone a little scratch building of the combustion chambers. Found some old cable flex that was the right size and used it to create the six chambers. No point in buying plastic rod when i have free things lying around 🙂

JohnLove the combustion chamber salvage! That's how you know you do too much modeling (maybe 😉 ) because I always look at random things and wonder how they can be incorporated into a build.

Alan G FörfattareJohn. Thanks for stopping by. I have a draw (or two) full of what most people would consider rubbish. I look at something and think. I might be able to use that on something in the future lol. My wife calls it hoarding 🙂

SpanjaardI would call it spare parts, scratchbuild elements, but the lady if the house would probably agree with yours, thank God she is not touching that cabinet 😉

Alan G FörfattareThanks guys. It's a slow process with the wire but it's coming on nicely

Alan G FörfattareStarted to add pipes, wires and brackets. This will take a lot of time and i'm trying to build up in layers so i don't have to work around things later on

Alan G FörfattareNeed to start painting the lower pipes now before i can add the upper ones. But not too much more for me to do on the engine. I won't go too overboard on this

ErikExcellent work on the Jumo, congratulations! I'm curious to see how you'll treat the Dora. I have the same Dora kit under conversion for a D-11 to make red 4 of JV44. Cheers
