Miguel VaqueroStarting stronger since the A350 catastrophe. Cockpit sub assembled with the Eduard Detail set, painted and weathered. Couldnt take more pictures of the progress due to the details being so small 🥴🥴

Thomas KolbMy goodness, that cockpit looks stunning! Are you sure it's not 48 scale?

Miguel VaqueroThanks Michael!
I could have hoped Thomas😅😅. It would have made my life way easier. Though the PE details helped a lot

CaptGPFAgree with everyone - the cockpit looks great! Chipping at this scale is impressive

Miguel VaqueroThanks guys, waiting to get free from work this week to star painting the fuselage and engine. Let's see how that turns out

Miguel VaqueroEngine almost done, except for the PE parts. I'm amazed of how it's all turning out tbh, didn't expect this great finish on such small parts

Mr DLooking good 👍 the instrument's look good, did you get the clocks to sink in with softener ??
I have this one to build next after my lAR-80.
Thanks for uploading 😁👍

Miguel VaqueroHey MrD thanks! Well Im sorry I can't help you with that because I used the photo etched and plastic instrumentation provided by the kit from Eduard. Sure someone with more experience with Tamiya decals can help you with that in here.
Looking forward to see how yours turns out!

Mr DThanks 👍👍
May look into the PE kit.
Belts come out nice, do you glue PE direct to plastic or do you have to prep first ?
Coming on nicely 👌

Miguel VaqueroI use cyanoacrylate for the PE parts, just a little amount sticks okay, although at this scale there's some parts that are way to hard to make them stick and my not so skilled application of the glue leaves a lot of residue on the model. I try to clean up the best I can but it's quite challenging sometimes
If you want to build a good looking cockpit with the extra detail I recommend you the PE for sure. But if your main goal is the exterior and not to focus so much on the interior the PE kit doesn't include a lot of things for the exterior, and the tamiya kit I think gives a really nice looking base cockpit

Miguel VaqueroWith half the plane chipped, I'm leaving for the week. There's still a lot of work to do regarding chipping and weathering to blend the paints. I'm having so much fun, and applying new technics for me that I'm sure I'll use in future models.
