Danke schoen, Ryul's Vater!

You've been here~
I had started this paper model building as a my hobby since the first sight of your work.
You are a still my teacher~!

Hi~
I've made some progress.
Near finishing of the boiler portion, and its several pipes and rods on the surface itself...and the boiler was installed on the base frame.
I don't know the exact name of each part, then can't explain the detailed processes of my work....

They are the part of brake system which connect to the cab.

And parts of boiler....

It's a air-pump compound...( I know exactly only the name of this part :D)

After coloring and weathering of the surface of boiler, each pipes and rods were placed and connected.

These are some detailed pictures of each portion...

And next, I will build fenders(Is it correct name?)of both sides of boiler, and several pipes under the cab.

Seo, that is some fine wire work. it looks like you are using styrene rod for some of it?

I use commercially selling PVC rods for modeling work.
They sell many kind of rods according to diameters or shape of cut-surfaces.
In my experience, PVC rods are well glued with super-glue, colored with enamel paints and easily cut with knife than metalic wires.
But for angling or circling it, it must be heated. Clean and detailed manipulation is not easy.

Thanks for your praise.

The bolts...It's a top secret...ha...ha.. :D....It's a joke.

My younger brother works at a laboratory of a company as a fellow.
He routinely use some kinds of LASER-cutter and I asked him to make several kinds of bolts accordong to its thickness(0.5 and 1 mm) and width(1, 2 , and 3 mm). He also has much interest in paper-modeling especially airplaines.
At first I had tried to make these bolts with a knife but it was not possible with my hands and eyes. :gaga:

Regards.
