Talking Tamiya 1/24 Mazda 787B - Detailed

Well, finally complete the engine detail.
It took me many hours but the final result worth it.
Hope to read your comments.

Looking great. It even seems as if they did some testdriving with it (tires and air-intake on the side look a bit used(might be lighteffects)).

Was this the model with the windscreen problems?

First thank you all for your comments.

Left is a picture of the engine bay after building it straight from the box and right a picture after I finish the detail process.



I used all kind of wires to respect the correct size of the scale, and all connections are according to the pictures I have from the model.

I also have painted some ports that were not according to the real model in the Tamiya manual and sand some ports to give it a more realistic look.

Nuno wasn't done apparently. He first build it from the box and then went super detailing the engine bay!!

Look at this. Very nice stuff!
