Looks like I set out to fill the engine forum myself.

Since I am a fan of HPH models and as a former reviewer I have in stock some of the 1/32 + 1/18 kits , I decided to start this.

I will work on it mainly in between the sessions of the Me 262 (you know, when after a few hours on the same subject you get to a point where you want to change shows a bit) .

The kit is on the high standards of this manufacturer and specially of this "Kings Scale" model kits .

Very detailed , accurate and gives alot of space for superdetailing , the limit is only your appetite !

Relatively soon I hope to have the first update , if you like the supject , stay tuned .

Wow, lost of words, my friend @faraomike!
This is a truly wonderful entry, it will look absolutely fantastic in 1/18!
The kit seems to be in extremely high standard.
Looking forward to it!

Really looking forward to this engine, Michael @faraomike
It does look very detailed.

... In the meantime ...
Even at this scale, some small components need to be made .
And first assembly/colouring/weathering etc .
What I have to say is that scale is a trap: everything is seen and you are dragged into an endless road of constructions and superdetail, without satiating the eyes and saying that it is enough !

This is superlative to the word detail, Michael @faraomike
Great work.

So , this is it ! This build comes to an end skipping my main construction (Me 262) .
A nice , detailfull , unique and easy to build kit , even if you plan to superdetail it . I will not write more , the pictures speak better .
Please feel free to comment or ask anything .
Thank you for looking .

Pictures speak for themselves and we are lost of words from your truly superb result, my friend @faraomike!
This is one of the most gorgeous models I have ever seen! And what a great build thread! Thank you so much for entering your build in the Aeroengines GB!
