This is the C2 console that will go between the 2 crew chief seats. Tim

The numbers and letters to the right is what I'm talking about. Tim

A little more done on the cockpit. The copilot's seat is in finally. 20200330_011938 by Tim Hudson, on Flickr Tim

Sweet. When's it being rolled out? Tim

Thank MP. Next time I post a pic, you'll see the numbers and words around it. I have to go back into edit mode and delete them out of the post. Kinda annoying when posting pics through Flickr. Tim

How do you get rid of all the numbers and letters beside the bottom of the pic?

Here's a pic of the cockpit weathered and just about done. Just need to finish the other pilot seat. Tim

A little bit of work on the copilot seat tonight. I scratchbuilt the seat release handles and the inertia reel cables from lead wire and stretched sprue. Still gotta put the seat belts on next. That's all for now Tim

I'm calling the instrument panel done. Should I spray a flat coat on or not? Tim

Finally starting to look like a cockpit. Just need a little weathering on the floor armor. I can't figure out how my pics are clear when I post them and yet they're in focus when I take them. That's all for now! Tim

I decided to knock out the center console of Super 63. Lots of one eye squinting! :blink Tim

After a month of no painting because of a broken airbrush, a new patriot 105 body came in and now I can paint again. I painted the tank and the fittings and now I'm ready for the straps to be put on tomorrow night. Tim

Started on the Robbie tank that will go inside Super 63 and added some extra detail using micromark rivet decals. You won't see it, but I know it's there. Top is before, and bottom is after. I also assembled the Live Resin miniguns. Man the detail on these is incredible! That's all for now! Tim

A little cockpit work tonight. Used some AK black camo panel liner on the floor to make it looked used and worn. Also painted the collectives and cyclic sticks. I don't like using the newer style cyclic grips as they were not on the TF helos back in 93. I tried to replicate the boot zipper...

Critique update: So far, the only gripe I keep hearing about is when you put the 2 fuselage halves together, you have to use ALOT of clamping force to keep them together. Some modelers are gently sanding the outside of the cabin pillars and then test-fitting the halves until they go together...

So I began work on the C2 console that was aboard Super 63 during the Oct.3rd battle. Alot of delicate little radio faces glued on, but I think it gives it that busy look that a console would have. FLIR and SABER receiver on where the C2 operator said they were. I'll make up the electrical...

Thanks. I still think we should wake up early one day and make our wives a honey-do list!!! See how far that goes? :woohoo: Tim

I just bought a new Sotar during the birthday sale, but it's probably gonna be awhile before I get it. I'm the kind of guy that has no luck. I'll buy the whatever and it's either missing pieces or no instructions. My HB F-14D kit was missing a sprue of ordnance. So this breaking comes as no...

No progress on the helo. I went to use it and heard the air hissing around the trigger. "Uh Houston, we've got a problem!" Shot an email to Ken from Badger. I have no doubt he'll fix it. It just sucks that this is my only airbrush right now and I'll have to wait for who knows how long to get...

Done with what I think is a big pain! Put all the fuselage decals on her. Time to hit the sack. Honey-do list in the morning, oh joy!!! Tim
