The way the belts are draped looks incredibly realistic. That’s tough to pull off in every scale and you did it.

The pit is looking amazing and those belts they are looking like cloth now.

Thank you Bruce and Floki!

The drape was difficult even with the vinyl material, and for a while after I installed that harness I hated it. But it grew on me. Next came the look of it. Thank goodness for oil paints and pigments. They helped. A lot! I wasn’t happy with the harness in my 1:48 Zeke, and I’m glad to have made up for it with this one.

Great work on the harness Kenny. The weathering was just the touch needed on the item.

Thanks Carlos!

And check out this instrument panel, y’all! I’m digging how the lenses go in and the instrument decals go on the back. Nice engineering, Tamiya!

Joe and Bruce, thank you gentlemen so much!

I was on a roll during lunch. I got the IP installed, followed by the guns, magazine, fuel tank, firewall, and oil tank. I took my time weathering them. Dry brushing, pigments, and oils. Here is the completed cockpit module:
