ReplyDeleteThank you for the feature and for your kind words about my work Hanzel, very much appreciated!
ReplyDeletewow! That engine bay (in particular) is absolutely incredible. Must have taken ages to do it. I've wanted to build something very similar to this, but my skills wouldn't be able to do it justice, I'm just glad there are people out there who can do this!
