The callenge was how to illuminate the engine in a way that illumination is not only a blue dot of the LED. The solution is to use an optical lens, which needs an adapter ring for installation

The lens installed inside the trust tube of the engine.

Agreed, the panels look really good. Makes me want to repaint my Venator.

Thanks Garreth and Markus. I only preshaded the most prominent panellines with a medium gray color. For the majority of the panels I used the primer ( mr.Surfacer 1200) as prehading color. Each panel is seperately airbrushed begining at the center of the panels with a very light gray. For the bright panels I added one drop white and masked the panels before airbrushing them. For the colorized panes I added some olive drab or brown into the light grey base color and applied the high dilluted color in different layers with a brush.
