Great attention to detail, your scratch building technique is superb.

Thank you, sir. Got it ready for installation today. Stole some decals for the ip's, and some tape seat belts which still need hardware. It was fun to do, and while it isn't a perfect representation, it does look better than two holes with only seats in them.

Stearman cockpit in 1.72
Posted by mississippivol on Sunday, January 31, 2016 6:28 PM

Hey, everyone. I thought I would show what I've been up to lately. I'm building the 1.72 RoG Stearman kit. The cockpit consists of two seats, which is the yellow one in the second picture. I got antsy, so I got some .040 rod, and using some wip photos from the nice Monogram 1.48 Stearman builds in our forum, built up a cage. In the second photo, I scratched up some seats, which went through three tries before the rough shape on the right side looked good to me. I still have to make instrument panels,  and paint.
