today I achieved a little bit progress, so finishing line is in sight. I polished the Body again (except the nose cone) and i really like the light reflecting. Furthermore I added the exhausts and detailed the side pods a little bit. Im not 100% satisfied but its ok. It was a mess to install the rear body parts to the under tray, but it was a fault of myself due to changing the sequence of building.
but enough words here are the pictures:
thanks for watching
That is the best heat stained set of exhaust manifolds I've ever seen! I think someone already asked, but how did you achieve that effect?
The intake trumpet purple effect is really cool too! Very impressive!

Thank you very much guys. regarding the exhausts, I used round about 30 very thin layers of different alclad colors (transparent blue, red, yellow, burnt violett, polished brass, polished aluminium and some smoke). I began with clear coating the black primer to apply the polished aluminium. Then I started with blue and red on the curves of the exhausts, adding some brass and repeat the procedure till I was satisfied.
best regards.
best regards.
