Started weathering parts to go in cockpit. There’s so many parts that there’s no way I can paint or weather them once fitted. Anyhoo, to start with I’ve applied some AK streaking grime to the cockpit frame, painted, chipped and weathered foot boards. Started seat, but it needs toning down a bit as leather to bright.    |

Now this is some serious proof of skills. The seat's highlights and shadows look mighty impressive. The metal superstructure looks ace as well.

Thanks chaps 😀 A few more bits underway...... pilots bulletproof backplate, Control column with added wiring Elevator trim wheel in leather base coat  I’ve added further wiring to airframe, but no pics yet as difficult to get camera close enough, will try later 🙂 |
