Bravo! Fantastic! I really like the job you did on the engine. If you don't mind, I'm hoping to use your work on the engine as a blue print...I hate searching for photos. Your work here has inspired me to resume work on my Zvezda kits...
The conversation in this thread about hollowing out the kit exhausts peaked my curiosity. Your comment about drilling the kit exhausts with a drill bit and using a razor blade to finish the job sounded like a logical plan that would work. But, I discovered using just those 2 tools proved to be too tedious a task. For future reference, if anyone's interested, using the razor blade to cut the square corners on the inside of the exhausts was just too difficult. But using a Squadron scribe (SQU10202)to cut those inside corners made the task so much easier. The Squadron scribe has a sharp tip that's bent like a hook, so that sharp tip will effectively remove plastic easier than a razor blade. Good news is the Zvezda plastic is soft so the process to hollow out the exhausts doesn't take as long...much easier task than I ever imagined it to be.
