The aft bulkhead, and seat, have now been assembled together, painted, weathered, and the seatbelts are installed. I decided to spring for Eduard’s Superfabric seatbelts seeing as how this is a do-over and I’m putting so much extra time into it.

I used AK’s Heavy Chipping Fluit to facilitate chipping in there. I used a lot of restraint. I’m happy with how it came out. After that, I sprayed it with gloss and gave it a light wash. I think it looks way better than the first one.

Onto the IP decal stuff!
