Thanks very much indeed guys. glad you like it!
Vic, the paint for the exhausts was a mix of Humbrol matt enamels. Rirst coat, Red and Dark Earth mixed to give a rusty red colour. Thin second coat 'damp brushed' of the same with black added, then again with white and yellow added. Finaly, 'spots' added mixed from red, yellow and white, to give a pale pinkish orange, representing the burnt, flaking look normally seen on this type of pipe.
Kevin, yes, that's what I use for compound curves. Didn't need it here thiough, as the only bends were for the fuel inlet pipes, and they are at an angle on the real thing, hence the short, sharp bend into each cylinder.
