Finally the seat is completed, the first coat of primer as in Humbrol 74 mixed with tiny 62. I'm not totally satisfied with it, but I'm not sure if it will fit inside the fuselage ever.( When I did the seats for the Eduard kit I had too make three seat to get one to fit inside the fuselage so if I'm totally out off scale and proportion I’ll ending up doing another one.
Next thing will to test the seat in the fuselage, I´ll going to muck up the seat mount and check if this will make me happy or not.
Finally I had some time to play around with the airbrush on the inside.

How's the build coming Lars ?
I was finally able to pick up my kit , when I opened the box my heart stopped and tears started too. From, "What a massive kit !!! "

Hi Terri
The positive side of making a new seat, witch took me 1˝ week is its´ awesome, on the other side the fact that the new seat is too high. So I´ll just have to make a new and that´s just what I´m doing now
I´ll be back when the new seat is up and fitted. cheers

Is there any movement on this topic? I've just started this kit and I've stripped out the ejector marks in the fuselage and those awful braching wires. The 2 halved also aren't neatly moulded on their connection side so I rubbed them over some fine wet 'n dry paper. Also, is that evenly moulded rear edge, at the point where the engine fits, not suposed to be thin, like sheet metal? I'm looking at Windsock publications to fathom it out.
