Thanks. I think the radial engine is going to push me over the edge of sanity - so I'm putting it off until last...

It sure does not look like a Corsair!! (Old joke around here )

Your modeling skills are way beyond what we call a starter. Cuts, seams, curves and bends all they are excellent!

Your thread is sure an inspiration for many of us. Keep on going!!

Thanks for the kind words. The model is getting close to completion, and I am very happy and excited about the way it is turning out - although it is at this point in a model that I seem to mess something up, so I am proceeding with caution...

I solve the problem of radial engines by doing them first! Then the stupid landing gear which just grinds me down.

This really is a sharp looking build. I bet that your engine is going to be a work of art. My basic hint for radial engines is to watch for height creep on the cylinders. Maybe cut a little tight on the horizontal lines.

I decided to go ahead and complete the engine cowling by constructing the air intake scoop and attaching it to the cowling. This was not the most difficult part of the build, but did require some very careful cutting and shaping due to its small size.

Nicely done, Gordon! I suspect this one will be a real beaut when done.
