All done! Next step... painting the exterior.

That cockpit looks damn good!

For having two different cockpit sets in there, it looks fantastic! I never would be able to tell the difference; even now after you mentioned it.
Way to go Declan, you're doing exceptional work. I commend you on the magic marker pre-shade idea; that is elegant in it's simplicity!

Re: 1/48 P51 for MCM GB
Thank you Duke! I can safely say that is the best cockpit I have made to date. I hope I don't screw THIS one up...
However the external paint went a little funny... waiting for a full dry to see how badly it went.

If the external paint went bad, three options. 1, go with what you’ve got. 2, paint over it. 3, strip it and have another go..

The interior looks good. Hope the paint works out.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Thank you all!
The paint came out ok, little pitted. However I am ok with this because I can say:
