I made it to the Hobby shop this morning and the first order of business in the restart of production was to mix some paint to get to what I think is a fairly close resemblance of interior dope red. It is a mix of red, white and brown and seeing as very little of it will be visible after the fuselage halves are joined, I am prepared to leave it as it stands. The first picture shows the left side fuselage interior after painting.
The second photo shows the right side of the fuselage with the front end offices set into place to give some idea of how the interior will look. Again, most of this will not be visible so one is left with knowing the work that took place before joining the fuselage halves. The left fuselage half is also shown.
The third photo has the two fuselage halves set together. Fit will require some fine adjustments, lots of clamps and perhaps a bit of putty afterwards. The photo does show though how little of the interior will be visible.
I am still debating whether to do the aluminum ribs in silver seeing as they will not be seen. I will do the ones visible in the side windows.
Cheers,
Jeff
