    Looks bl**dy good to me! But you have missed the Inspection stamp, under the seat, which was a quarter of an inch square..........

    Looks great Andy, love the PE details....

    Not sure if ur done with the pit yet, but maybe a wash or some dark pastel work could filth up the tub just the right amount and make it look tits...

    Thanks guys. Yes, Dan, a wash is on the list after I attach details to the sidewalls and finish everythign in the pit.

    I found some colour cockpit pictures to get the knob colours right (although these are an F6F-5 not -3 I think) and will add the hydraulic hand pump yoke to the right of the seat.

    Not too happy about the dorky looking details behind the seat but I don't think these will be easily seen once the tub is in the fuselage.

    Great reference pics mate, especially for the colours. Interesting to see the parachute in the seat pan too.
