Was about to comment on the landing gear lever, but Andy beat me to it! Good stuff Wayne, and yes, go with the contrast in colour for the plug leads.

 

[Rogi]

Fine looking Merlin there, Sometimes it seems as if you are a "Merlin" yourself!

 

[Wayne Little]

Cheers Paul and Gerry...

the merlin looks great and the cockpit sidewalls will you be adding more Wayne treatment to them.

 

[Gnomey]

Coming along great Wayne!

 

[Wayne Little]

Thanks Guys, as i said painted those contrasting pipes and leads and dry fitted the engine into its frame again....here is how it looks...

Looks fantastic Wayne.

Great stuff Wayne! Mask out the tweezers and the plastic locating pins, and that could pass for a photo of the real thing!

Nice stuff Wayne. I'm sure this won't be a problem for you, but make sure everything's properly lined up as the cowlings are quite annoying and don't fit fantastic, at least for me. I may have slightly misaligned something somewhere along the line so I had problems, and you can't do test fitting until everything's build which causes more issues.

 

[Gnomey]

Great work so far Wayne!

 

[Rogi]

The engine looks great Just enough wiring without going over the top crazy till it doesn't fit

 

[A4K]

Love that engine Wayne, and cockpit should be sweet when done!
