Bloody good stuff Barny, just show we should never chuck the surplus bits out.

 

[Jock Tamson]

Your improvements are certainly sharpening up the comparatively soft detail in the base kit. Very nice.

With a closed canopy you won't see much but it's fun to spruce things up a bit anyway.

Very nicely done

 

[Gnomey]

Good work so far!

 

[Berny5664]

Your following and comments are really encouraging.
Thank you all.

In the meantime I prepared the side walls of the cockpit , with the additional pieces.
Here is the photo of the preparation

I already painted the whole thing but it was too late and I went to sleep without taking pictures.

See you soon.

[Vic Balshaw]

Beautiful bit of detailing Berny.

 

[fubar57]

Agreed

 

[Crimea_River]

Great adds. I'm concerned though that your instrumemt panel is not going to fit properly on the right half because of the placement of some of the parts there.

 

[Vic Balshaw]

Andy could have a point.

 

[Berny5664]

Yes Vic, from the picture I posted, Andy would be right, but the pieces were only provisionally placed before being painted. Once they were colored, I glued them trying to make it all work... I hope

 

[Vic Balshaw]

That is such a bust office and nicely done.

 

[Berny5664]

Thank you Vic

[Jock Tamson]

Brilliant work in the cockpit. Looking really good.

 

[Berny5664]

Thank you Jock

 

[fubar57]

Awesome office Bernie but one point; the red crowbar is post war. Cockpit Green or a metal colour for WW2

 

[Berny5664]

Fantastico ufficio Bernie, ma un punto; il piede di porco rosso è del dopoguerra. Cockpit Green o un colore metallico per la Seconda Guerra Mondiale

Thank you Geo... I'll correct it tonight... Glad you like
