It packed isn't it, plenty more to go in yet.
Going to make a start on the instrument panel next, that should keep me busy for a while

Gorgeous IP! How did you do that?

These were decals you get in the kit. I used a satin black and used the decals. You do get a second option in the kit to paint the dials on yourself A bit more progress today   |

Very smart mate, early days I know but what is the parts fit like?

The fit is amazing Mence and the cleaning / prep is the best I've seen

Good looking cockpit assembly so far Ian. Looks sharp!!
There are those that can paint up IP's with a paint brush but I dang sure aint one of 'em. Your outcome on that IP made for a very realistic outcome. Just beautiful work on that IP. WOW!!

Cheers fellas Done a half hour tonight. Bit of aluminium dry brushing inside the cockpit, you wont see it but I've done it anyway, decals on the ally tanks, whatever they are. Few bits to go inside the cockpit area of the main body, painted green, and a few decals too, then it's ready for closing up  |

Thanks Steve, shame it's all going to be closed up soon  |

Thanks Steve, shame it's all going to be closed up soon That may be true but if you build this plane with the entry door in the "open" position you'll still be able to see alot of it. Looks fabulous Ian!! |

Post by robbo on May 16, 2023 6:27:05 GMT -5
Thanks mate, the door will be open and the canopy pulled back

There's alot more detail that can be seen that what I thought on that cockpit Ian. That open entry door is gonna help with that alot. Looks like a pretty clean mate up between the fuselage halves from what I can see.

Post by robbo on May 17, 2023 6:10:14 GMT -5
Yup the two halves are a great fit
