I was looking for a 'side-build' and this was somewhere in my stack...
There are a couple of projects that will have my first interest ( Ken's Blackbird and Ron's B17) but I started this one anyway, it will probably take a year or two to finish this 7298 piece, 57 page ,1 meter, or 3 feet monster , but to make my life a bit easier I got all the extra lasercut parts.I even got all the nuts from Avantcard ( thats 3000
nuts) Its the first time I use lasercut parts, but sofar they look very nice to me, specialy the numbershields and runningboards
My main interest nowadays is planes , but some 40 years ago I spend my vacations chasing the last in service steamengines in Germany with a photocamera, so there is an old connection, and I only live a mile away from the railwaymuseum that has a couple of real and still working steamengines..
First cuts...
