Excuse this double posting (its also in the Demonstration team Group build), but wanted to get everyone’s opinion/critiques on the cockpit, As its the first time I’m trying to build a new panel pretty much from scratch…
I was actually able to finsh up my cockpit this weekend, here some before and after shots…
I started a full build review, if you are interested and would like to see more pictures, please follow this link http://waihobbies.wkhc.net/f7eb.html
Your comments/critiques are welcomed. Thanks.
Looks great from here. Nice work.
Regards, Rick
your scratch building looks great. on the website you mentioned a book by Mike Ashley. Which book? where can I find it?
thanks,

They were both published by Kalmbach, I mispelled his name - should be Ashey. They are
Detailing Scale Model Aircraft
Model Aircraft Tips and Techniques:
I believe they are both out of print. But can be purchased used on Amazon or Ebay. But may not be cheap!
yea, $45 for the Tips and techniques.
is it that good?
Its good, but then I got them for less than $20 each. Frankly, $45 is too much, I saw one of them for $85-95?!?!!?? I guess, with ebay, people collect everything now days. I would say none of the material in it can’t be found elsewhere on the web, magazines, and current books. It is nice to have some much in one place, and he does show considerable details in cockpit detailing, especially scratchbuilding. So If you can find it close to the original price, I would recommend them.
wow. that is some serious scratchbuilding. great stuff.
