Thank you Gentlemen.

AH1Wsnake, other than to make sure that you gice the parts a good wash prior to paint there really is nothing to watch out for. Patience and care takes care of the rest.

My only gripe with The Cobra Co's resin pits is they don't give IP dial faces. Eduard also used to make a PE set

Looking good, wibhi. I too have a cobracompany cockpit upgrade (for my Whiskey). Any pointers on detail-painting something like this? It will be my first time working with resin parts.

Looks great. Looking forward to the completed project pics. Gotta love the CC upgrade kits.

Well, ok it's not burnin. But this is one big heavy piece of Cobra Co. Ah-1G resin cockpit. Just gotta get it in the fuselage then I get to start to play with the Fireworks toilet bowl conversion with late "G" tail.




The IP dials are 1/32 waldron IP dials (and yes, they are a tad big for the IP). Man,
this is by far superior to the old revell cockpit.
