I've moved the quoted thread to the LSP Forum Info section, which we really don't use enough. We also need to publish all-new image posting tutorials, but sadly, no one really has the time.

 

Bruce, check out the information posted above and try again. If it doesn't work, leave the results in your post. That way, I'll have some clue as to where things might be going wrong.

Right, here goes nothing!

 

This is the Gee Receiver box as painted 2 years ago!

This week I masked it up so I could airbrush some MMP-079 RAF Interior Green on it.  3 hours to mask the first one, 2 hours to do the second one!

So here we are with some green paint, it only took a couple of minutes to do 2 passes with hair dryer help.

Here are the radio boxes mounted on the wing centre section.

Finally here are the instrument panels so far. It's a toss up between Yahu and Eduard.  The Yahu parts are incredibly beautiful but don't have the raised bezels, the Eduard colour etch parts need to be "Flattened" as they have a raised line effect.  It's a residual from Eduard's printing process, means I'll have to gloss the dials later.

Hi Guys,

 

Here's some work from yesterday.

 

I matted down the Yahu IP's with AK Ultra Matt Varnish then painted the dials with Createx UVLS Gloss Varnish

MMP Grey Primer then MMP-079 RAF Interior Green on the IP base structure.

My eyesight isn't what it used to be so I put away the HGW seatbelts and opted for Eduard's etched coloured steel set.  Here's the first one.

And a short while later, I have two of them.

Now to sort out the two Nav seats

Hi Guys,
