I love what you did with that engine and the IP. And that color you’ve achieved for the interior green as bang-on. That’s one of my favorite colors for interior surfaces. I could build and paint A6Mx cockpits all day and never get bored. Great start!

Great start - did you put decals over the moulded part to do that IP?

If you look really close a couple of instruments are off but it's really close

Decals for IP’s being what they are, and just the nature of how they snug down over surfaces, makes me suppose that 99 times out of a hundred one or two will be a little bit askew or off by a fraction here or there. In my mind it’s almost expected. You’ve accomplished the desired effect, and it looks very nice to me. I had to look for the off dial, real close and real hard. It’s a great IP in my humble opinion :-D
