Actually these interiors of air intakes looked a little bit different..

You'r welcome Romek. But I like your idea of using the foil from the medicine wrapping. :thumbright:
 
I just love the way we (modellers) use lateral thinking to solve problems!
I now ask my pharmacist for a specific brand of the pain killers I'm prescribed, as the foil packaging is ideal for simulating quilted padding, such as that in the nose and cockpit of the B25 !
I guess most of us have a box or two full of bits and pieces of scrap packing materials, drinking straws, tubes etc !!
 
Don't overlook your dentist !!! All those picks and burrs they use get dull and they just throw them away. Some of them can be made into awesome modeling tools ! If you ask they usually will save them for you.
 
I'm always begging the dentist for something, makes the bill he gives me a little easier to stomach and never throw away the empty pill sleeve they make great paint mixing trays and as seen are useful for all sorts in scratch building.

Nice progress on a great machine Roman.
