Try finding wee bits that have dropped onto a grey painted concrete basement floor that is badly chipped, scratched and flaking with my old eyes. Always a challenge. Chris

As a general rule, I don't follow kit instructions when painting engines, especially Bristol engines. Most kits makers get it wrong. Chris

So do I, but how many others who do not have good photos of a Bristol Pegasus engine might paint this to look like an American-built engine. I see that mistake quite often on modelling forums. It wouldn't have taken much effort for Vector/Neomega to have included a painting guide. Chris

Does it come with proper painting instructions? Chris

The only visible difference that I'm aware of is the exhaust pipes. The early ones were fitted with the kidney or slotted type while later ones had triple ejector style exhaust. Chris
