Todays work was focusing on the seat / cushion and belts and they are now in place .  :) Instruments are next on the list .

Very unusual cockpit, since the huge engine requires a big front. And in the back the fuselage becomes surprisingly slim.
Let's see how it will look in the halves.
Well done, Terri!

Cheers,
Frank

The seat, cushion and belts look great Terri! I don't suppose you will build a "New" cockpit for My 1/32nd Roden kit will You  ;D Seriously I love what you are doing with this kit!

Thanks Rick  :) But I will pass on that . I started doing that to the one in the stash which became a shelf queen . My first go at 32 scale . It will get finished in my own scheme this winter when those cold months set in .

Instruments are done and this was a challenge . I'm missing a few of my punches  :o ! I spent a few hours trying to find them and got no where . So I had to use one just a tad smaller and for the reaaly small instruments on the side panels I opt for decals instead since I have nothing smaller for punching .... I ended up losing the PE part for the compass mount . Have no idea what happened to it was even on my hands and knees checking the floor . Sieben even give me weird looks ! ;D The compass is ready to go with a bit of trimming on the tail part and once in place bolt heads will be added . A grease pump was fashioned up quick . Almost forgot about this . The instrument panel it shelf is to big , something I want to change a while back and now it's to late for that with out doing a fair bit of damage and will have to make the control column all over again . It is out of wack . I just notice this today !!!!! So it will remain as is and I do like how it looks so far . Once these other details are added the gun mounts are next and rest of the parts then she can get closed up .

Terri,
The small details are looking very good. Having made many of the same items in my 1/28th D. VII build, I can really appreciate
the work you're doing.

Super extra details Terri. Never mind that a small part is too large - if it fits when you close the fuselage halves nobody will be any the wiser... Good to see this one is shaping up too - an interesting type.
