The engines are coming from a 1/32 Me262. I still haven't found the final version/shape.  

 

 

View of the vulture's nose. I used a mig-25RBT nose and installed it upside down. To get a correct fit I had to cut the Skyray nose.  

I will try to use leds to illuminate the engine exhaust. The leds are coming from Ikea kids ghost torches.  

General idea of the project.  

Preparing the cut to create the top and bottom engine bays  

 

Cut done  

Lower engine bay glued. Needs filling, sanding and detailing.  

Another cut  

The lower engine bay ready for installation

Cutting the back of the fuselage where it normally connects with the fin. I want to blend it with the wings to leave more space for the top engine air intake.
