Hi snokri,
allready had the privilege to see the outcome of your work in real. Thanks for showing the "how to do it".

Enough wood!
let's go back to the "Volksjäger".
Next were cables and wires. Thin copper and soldering wires were used. This is the main cable of the right side.



The left sidewall is complete. The small decals are leftovers from old Revell kits. The rear cockpit bulkhead is dry fitted.



And here comes the right sidewall. The kit parts aren’t too bad here but a new radio was needed anyway.



The kit part of the instrument panel needed some refinement. The original part was constructed from two panels I used thin plastic sheet for them. The suspension for the rudder pedals was made from U-channel which taper a little at the front end. The pedals are kit items their supports are scratched again.



After painting:
Some old decals were used on the kits panel. I’m not to contend with the result maybe I will consult the aftermarket for a photo etched part but for now it will do.



The front wheel well:
I scratched the support for the joy stick and did some refinements. The joystick got metal axes and is moveable in narrow limits. The viewing window is covered with masking tape which will be removed later.



I intended to use the modified Revi sight of the kit but it jumped from my fingers and wasn’t sighted again. I had to make a new one. Black spruce and plastic sheet were used. The lens was made from clear spruce polished to an apt form.



The colored sight with its wiring:

A hardy well done sir, looking very sharp I be watching this with entrest my wife is a Diebetic and takes two shots in the ash can a day she usually gives me a few syringes they sure come in handy with liquid glues and thinned down water base adhesives too. Keep up the work looking superb.
