There is just something in fighters with delta shaped wings!
The cockpit looks good, and you succeeded perfectly with those belts ! They hang very naturally on the seat

No worries Bruce - I like Humbrol's own Evoco Brushes - specifically a number 4. These do about 99.9% of my painting along with a few selected Citadel brushes for detail.
I like the Evoco because they're natural hair and very soft - just the job for not leaving paint marks. I paint with nothing larger than a number 4 as use very little amounts of thin paint an move it around a lot - that whole
''Use a big flat brush and move it in the direction of the airflow...'' is tosh in my opinion - well it's never worked for me anyway.
