The quality of the resin casting is flawless and bubble free with excellent fin detail on the cylinders on this air cooled motor.  This set gives you the front and back side of the motor.  You simply remove the parts from the casting bock and glue both parts of the engine back to back.  From there you have the option to add wiring for that final bit of detail.  This is 1/72 scale so this engine is tiny, but that hasn't prevented Quickboost from adding plenty of detail.

This 1/72 engine gives an exceptional level of detail which could be shown off with an open engine cowl panel. 

You can purchase these and other fine resin detail items directly from QuickBoost

I would like to thank QuickBoost for providing me with this product sample.
