Bob, I can tell you are going all out on your SE5a just by the resin cast of the engine parts! That level of attention is bound to result in a stunning scale model. I've been frustrated by the fast that virtually anything I build while here in Japan is going to have to stay here in Japan (just like my EIII had to stay in the US). So for the moment my modeling is limited to the research and detailing. I just finish up a prototype for some spoked wheels (a new and improved prototype) and I figure if I can get the rest of the model to look like the wheels I should be OK!
