In clockwise order, from the upper left photo:
1, 2 - two engine tubes in 1 hour, that's the easy part.
3 - 96 stripes of paper (no, it's not a stew), 60 9mm stripes for the "turkey feathers" on the nozzle, 36 5mm stripes for the "fans" in the nozzle.
4 - assembling the fans

Second picture:
5 - progressively adding more stripes
6 - the fans and inner side of the nozzle are painted with black watercolour, which has a nice matte finish
7 - detail photo of the finished nozzle
8 - T-wing?
