Geez... even I couldn't do that with these old eyes of mine. Outstanding work on the detailing!

Thank you kindly folks for the encouragement. I managed to finish the cock pit tub and am now working on the side panels. After that I'll be working on the glass enclosure, which is a real PIA on this kit. Any ways, here's the completed tub:

Beautiful work. Simply beautiful.

A fine example of making the best out of detail given! I like the subtle drybrushing and the wiring. Same for the look, really nice! :shoutout:

Thanks Lyle, Paul, Thomas and Kent. Right now I'm spending a lot of time on the side wall panels and the main instrument panel. Talk about a jicky set up with that IP!!! Looks like a skeletal framework that holds the whole thing to the glass frame work. Tedious!!!!

Got the side walls installed and the IP painted and slightly weathered. Just gotta pick out some details, do a little touch up and fade the entire IP a little bit and we're good to go it looks like.
