Actually, I just finished adding that ;)
I'm taking a break from it for a bit, but when I get back to it, I'll be adding the turbine details.

The gun is around 30mm...not precise cuz i'm usign generic units to measure it all out....but the casing is too small...the gun extends too far out without the support...the images i have are kinda shitty, and hard to tell anything from..thanks for that pic ;)

Taking a look at both pics.. (and, hella nice job MrBlack)
The wings on your plane should be shaped a little different..other than that, and the detail of course, it looks almost identical.
