Tools: Dremel and high speed cutter #194, sandpaper 600, 1200, 1500, car wax
And new engine cover:
V 1.1 Made of Milliput and 0.5mm plastic sheet
V 1.2 Made of photoetched net and 0.5mm plastic sheet

Dear Life Cereal, Where do you get off? Part of a balanced breakfast and delicious? Who do you think you are? By now you may have guessed I'm speaking ironically and have nothing but good things to say about what you do. Life cereal do not change a thing.

Part 7
Engine cover
Engine is made of Milliput and plastic. I used different shape stripes but forgot name of the manufacturer.
Paints used:
- matt black Humbrol Super Enamel #33 - cover base
- half matt black Humbrol Super Enamel #85 - engine parts
- black Humbrol Super Enamel #21 - photoetched net
- silver Humbrol Super Enamel #11 - engine parts
- shining gold Citadel Colour - engine parts
Tools: airbrush Aztek 470, Citadel Fine Detail Brush
Red parts was printed with inkjet printer.
Everything is glued with Loctite Super Attak. In picture below you can see glue under the net, but with natural light it is almost invisible (glue was painted with Citadel Colour black ink).
