Gents,
Thought you might like to see how the cockpit shapes up - all slots together perfectly!

Hi David

Beautiful work - it looks fantastic! Is that the kit-supplied seat harness?

All the best

Some great work there
I escpecially like the wooden scratches on the floor & the side wall shadings
Only a question. Can you please tell us what A/M's have you added in the 'pit


Cheers Nick

Hi Nick,

That is all from the box, no additions apart from paint.

I must say, I'm impressed. Well done. If all that stuff comes in the box, then Tamiya has another winner for sure.

Speachless... Superb painting with just the right ounce of wear. This kit is a winner for sure.

Keep updating your progress, please!

Cheers

Stunning, it looks like that the only thing that this kit will be missing is masks for the markings But I would say that wouldn't I. Mine will be finished as Big Beautiful Doll

So would mine if I can't get any masks for my Dragon offering Mal

With two kits available in 1/32 I could now be tempted to do one as Big Beautiful Doll and the other as Temptation if I can get a decent shot of the nose art
