P-40 Resin Cockpit Q.

[Chris Hannover - Germany]

Thanks all very much for the comments, ideas, help & pics! Seems like, i really should give the scratch build a try... If i fail, i would buy a Resin cockpit later.

 

Thanks again mates,

Chris

Chris,

 

here's another option: the part photoetched set! Main parts may be cut in plastic as the set offers very fine parts to detail the whole pit!

I used the Lonestar set a couple of years ago , when it was , I think, the only game in town for the P-40 , It really is pretty good , correct depthof sidewalls , curved fusalage floor , the seat is a US pattern , with only lapstraps , so if your planning an RAF aircraft , you''ve got some additional work to do , IP was resin only , and not that much of an improvement over the kit one .

 

It sort of remined me of one of the early BB pits - And thanks to UK/US exchange rates I got it for less than £10 I would recommend it to those who lack the ability to scratchbuild sucessfully, (i.e ME!)
