I am aware of the basic color (white) with the black centerline stitching. This is what I will "weather" the shoulder harness. The lap belts will be a "weathered khaki" and a leather-colored patch at the connection point. I am using the FINE MOLDS seat belt set, and they are quite detailed in...

Now, another question. Regarding the interior grey-green color like that used in the cockpit and gunners location. Is it also used in the wheel wells and on the retraction portion of the...
You are quite correct about "affection". I've been doing this "hobby" for some time now and am trying to shake off the adage "You can't see it but its there" I've heard so many times. I find it bogs you down and you end up wasting time or not finishing.
