A small little update, need to get this one done, wow it's a year already.

I must say that I have been in a quandary regarding the colour as a base for the manifold, some may say rust other will not , well I have some pics of diesel engines that have been running in excess of 10 years and the manifolds either have a coating on or they don't rust up as quickly , so I have gone for a steel color that I will just dirty up some

Here I have added some steel paint to the manifold and exhaust side of the turbo, I think the texture came out quite nicely. Will add some weathering to this and get rid of that shine.

Update to follow, thanks for looking
