So many engines, so little time to browse. Great stuff Tony. Thanks.

I've always had mixed feelings about engines in our models. I know they add to the realism of the image, but when I think about it, for me, the engines are initially viewed when the model is received, then put in a display case with the hood closed, never to be viewed again. Seems like a great deal of effort and resources for a few minutes of oohs and aahs. My thinking also applies to the "working features" as well.

Nice pics Tony. Thanks for the reminder that some of the most detailed parts of these models are under the hood.

@sizedoesmatter Operating panels and engine details do offer a lot of ways to pose your model. Although having multiples of models with identical engines, I may have one displayed to show the inner workings and the rest, as you say, might as well be curbsides.

While I was shoveling snow I came up with another option, display a 3rd model upside down so the highly detailed under carriage can be viewed for all to see. 😀Â
