I started Sunday night....man with acrylics you can paint like a wild man! and they DRY FAST! and I WILL finish it by the 7th of April '06' for a local Contest on the 8th.
It's out of the box and so far the kit is going together very well. After this pic was taken I weathed ( for lack of better words ) the cockpit floor to bring out the panel lines and details. I washed all the sound proofing with a water / black chaulk dust mix....it really brought out the diamond pattern!
The kit really does need a PE consol...the thickness of the clear consol pretty much hides the film gauges and such.
Enjoy! and yes I know that some of the tones or wrong....I'm just having fun with this one!
Straighten up and fly right.....
