Well, some more progress. This picture shows that you neither need skill at building nor skill at photography to post pictures of your builds (sorry, but it's the best I could do on the pic).
I did learn one thing. When assembling the pushrods I glued them to the caps then glued the assembly to the cylinders. It would have been much more consistant if I'd have done it the opposite way, glueing the caps on and inserting the pins afterwards. She'll look ok though. It's mostly covered with the cowl afterall.

Thanks - each cylinder is 9 parts plus 2 pins - so over 100 pieces in the engine.

And now, further progress - she's starting to look like an airplane!

It's coming together nicely! The engine is outstanding, regardless of your assembly sequence.

Here's the cowl for around the engine. I'm pretty happy with this piece - there's no tabs or connecting strips used - it's all edge glued. (There are tabs for each piece and connecting strips for a couple joints provided, I just didn't use them ).

Awesome cowl.
I never even knew what a cowl was before this forum, but hey, it teaches lots of junk :D
