Re: Jordan 191
Every update is more realistic then the last. Your wiring photos of the engine look so realistic, it's nearly impossible to tell the difference from real or model. I really thought that I was looking at the real deal at 1st.

Re: Jordan 191
Mmmmm...lovely stuff! Following a project like this is so worthwhile - it doesn't matter whether our own skills are capable of repeating such work, but it just shows what can be done. Often you find inspiration from one element of a build - a new way to do a particular detail, for example - but at other times you just soak up and enjoy the whole thing. This is one of those times...
All the best! SB

Re: Jordan 191
Hi
Here’s another quick update with the „final“ bits of the engine bay. After thinning them, painting and decaling I installed the little panels that sit between the rear suspension arms. On the Jordan they each held a little oil radiator in most races. I didn’t do anything silly with the kit radiators but besides some cleanup I had to get rid of ejector pin marks on the inside radiator grids ( very clever placement Tamiya….not!)  On top of each radiator I put a little “carbonized” panel as on the real car and then connected them with braided line and R.B.Motion A/N-fittings. For Spa the additional radiator in the rear wing support was also connected. I’m not really sure about the connection of the right hand side radiator and where the oil hose should run from there because I have no useful picture of that part. There should be an oil pump somewhere but I don’t know that, so I decided to just connect the radiator to the gear box like on the left side.  With those final hoses installed I made the front undertray supports. They are 1mm metal strips with etched bolt heads running from the engine cam covers to the floor.  At the rear those supports are a bit more sophisticated. They are made from 8 individual parts each ( metal tube, hex bolts and etched parts ) and connect the diffusor with the little orange sub frames on the rear wing support.  So this is it for the engine bay details. I’m now missing the rear wing, the rear view mirrors and the cowling. The cowling currently gives my quite a headache. The front fixing pins don’t work anymore as they should. I shortened them a bit too much/early for all the paint and decals that went on the model. I tried to fix that last weekend but only made matters worse. Now I have to find a way to fix that without ruining the look too much. I could just leave the model open, but then I’m not yet ready to admit defeat :-) Anyway, that’s it for today. For the last picture there’s an overview of the ( open…) finished engine bay :-)  @maxone....which pictures, which forum? :-) Edit... Ho trovato. Nessun problema :-) Last edited by jaykay640; 11-23-2010 at 06:46 PM.
