Here is the main cockpit. Custom mixed the green. Eduard lap belts. Did a black wash and added some silver chipping. Awaiting brass paint for fire extinguishers.

Since photo was taken realized the GWH control stick was missing the trigger on the grip so installed the Monogram one. Was not the last Monogram part; copilot control column with foot rests, starter crank, and the .30cal flexible was added. The kit supplied single .30 lacked the trigger handles. Go figure.

Hopefully the Eduard canopy mask and brass arrive today in the mail.

This is a superb looking cockpit, my friend @kahu!

@kaku - Intermediate Blue IS NOT Blue-grey. The color you want is either Mr Hobby H-42 (aqueous) "Blue Gray" or Mr Color C-367 "Blue-Gray". Blue Gray is VERY DIFFERENT from Intermediate Blue.

@kaku - yes, Intermediate Blue appears to have become common when the tricolor scheme came on the scene.

Thanks, best get back to building these here kits before the unbuilt pile grows any bigger.

Very good on the interior, David @kahu
The decals do look really good with a drop of clear.

Here is the fuselage just snapped together with no glue yet. A nuisance is the lack of a good way to align the lower instrument panel to the fuselage side. If I ever build another may join the instrument panels with sheet plastic because the upper panel has far better alignment and attachment. Skipped installing the PE plotting board as already had enough fiddly fun.
