Very nice, Wayne. help me better understand what you mean by cutting out the instruments. I am very curious about that idea for a couple of 1/32 kits I have in the stack.

When I prepare the IP paint, drybrush and gloss the dials, I then cut out each dial and place them individually on the raised IP surface detail, this is a tricky process but done with care and ONLY a few at a time over a few hours or days provide a great panel face. I normally do 1 on each opposite side so I don't balls any up once all are settled and dry i apply a drop of gloss on each, you must be patient as one wrong move and you have a distorted dial that becomes very difficult to fix.

Couple of examples..Ki-84, Fw190, Bf109
