Very nice work! The engines look great

I missed the update on the engines but they look absolutely stunning.

And I honestly hadn't realised just how cramped the cockpit was in these things.

Lovely work & photos as always

The panels lines really bring focus to this model.
Very neat build.

Love the panel lines and all the subtle bits of it, it really comes together and makes it look like it could fly off that darn table

Really nice build and great work on the all-white scheme
