Sot today I scrachbuilt the FRIES release handle using some leftover PE and some evergreen stock. Pretty cool I think. I also finished the cabin roof by adding a clear styrene cover for the overhead breaker panel.
Now that is some intimate detail!

While I do recognize the unit of measure, is Crap ton one word or two?
Looks great Tim! I applaud you! I've specifically shied away from subjects I have intimate knowledge of, I would literally never finish adding details and it would never be good enough!
Crapton seems more official.

This is so real that I won't be surprised if at the end it does fly…
Congrats.

A little bit of an update. I glued down a piece of styrene, painted it and weathered it to represent the aluminum plate that the C2 console seats (UH-1 Huey seats) were mounted to.
After that I glued on the crew chief sidewall armor to the cabin walls and began to layout how the MH-60L would have been equipped. I'm sure it will change once I hear from its crew chief.
That's it for now.

Besides the fact that the console was too wide, I am told that neither CE seats were installed on the C2 helicopter during the blackhawk down mission. (Not too crashworthy) so I went on and redid a new console, but kept the panel. Since no seats were on the helo, I added some handles made from lead wire and tamiya tape and then added Micromark resin louver decals for the console vents.
Just waiting on some Anyz resin knobs to arrive so they can be added to the panel.
That's all for now.

Had to scratchbuild a special avionics box tonight that sat in front of the fuel tank. I also painted and glued the APU handle to the left rear wall.
One step closer to finally closing the interior up.

A little work on it tonight
I painted the C2 console tamiya rubber black followed by a tamiya black wash and finally some dry brushing using tamiya Sky Grey and added some electrical connectors from evergreen rod and painted then Vallejo dark exhaust.
I finished up the console wiring and now starting the minigun wiring using detail master DM-1420 hose. (Works perfect for wiring).
Boy, these are a pain to get glued in!!!
That's all till tomorrow night
