So, after a week-long break, I returned to the model, and progress is already visible!
I began to assemble exhaust manifolds. It is also full of small details.
Everything is glued edge to edge at unusual angles.
But the challenge was to assemble the curved tubes.
As a rule, it is possible to form them out of paper or bend them from wire.
I decided to form from paper, because I wanted to experiment a little.
In the future I will have to assemble large exhaust pipes with crazy angles and I had to train on cats
At first I tried to cut out the whole part without reeds and stick it into the tube.
Next, cut the corners and glue bented. Although gluing the tube was easy,
cutting corners was uncomfortable even with the sharpest knife.
I tried the second method: cut out the entire part, including the reeds. Although it was necessary to glue the tube on the reeds - it turned out cleaner and easier.
I assembled in this method the remaining tubes. And of course the exhaust manifolds
Glued them to the blocks. There is also a difference between the units, and the last one is different.

And here is the most interesting part! The blocks are assembled on the basis of the main crankcase and the outlines of the engine have already appeared!
