Hello everyone, if I can figure out how to do it, I will show some pictures of a project that I recently started working on again after languishing for many years. I posted something regarding the dilemma I’m having trying to replicate the engine for this with the hopes of someone with the resources to help me with having one 3D printed from an edited photo image that I have.

I’m very impressed with your scratch built airframe!
Thanks very much. I built it the way I’m used to building flying models, just heavier seeing as though it won’t be flying. It spans 36" to give an idea of the size. I’ll be covering it with a light iron on film and hoping to paint over that following recommendations others have used. I may not be adding the amount of detail most on this forum would, I’ll just have to see how it goes as long as my patience holds out. I’m using aluminum from soft drink cans to form all the metal cowlings as well as the landing gear fairings. I haven’t figured out how to make the round engine cowling yet, just another hurdle. Thank you for the interest.
