amurray Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 Great work! Great photos! Cockpits are my favorite part of aircraft modeling. I quickly lose interest after the cockpit and it thereafter becomes drudgery. Cicciuzzo, Uncarina and Out2gtcha 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we should work together? You do the pits, and I'll finish them!!! Lothar, Out2gtcha, amurray and 6 others 3 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stokey Pete Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 I could quite happily build and paint cockpits. I always find my mojo slackening off once I get onto other sub assembly’s. I’m terrible at the end of a build for rushing and ultimately making a hash of undercarriage. I just wanna get it on legs and hang the exploding bits before moving on to the next kit.

airscale Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 ooooh my favourite subject I could just build cockpits and be quite happy - I nearly did once - I had the idea to build all the 1/24 scale range to showcase our products at Telford and literally just build each cockpit... anyways, some sublime work shown here, I am glad there are so many cockpit fans - there is something about it, I am not sure I can put my finger on what draws me in, but it is the first thing I look at in a model, and the first thing I want to do when making one of my own.. I don't have much of a history to show, but these are the best part of 7 years output lol.. 1/32 Hobbycraft Sea Fury 1/24 F7F Tigercat - not much to show as I didn't finish it.. 1/18 Spitfire MkXIV 1/18 P51C Mustang love it! my favourite thread of all time Peter Uncarina, Cicciuzzo, theseeker and 23 others 24 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_K2 Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 Strange, I have a few 'pits that I'm very happy with, but can seem to find no photos at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greif8 Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 (edited) Exceptional and beautiful work on display. The instrument lighting is a very cool touch.

Uncarina Posted April 20, 2020 Author Share Posted April 20, 2020 Greif, really nice! I love the closeups of the various levers and other details. Which aircraft belongs to that last cockpit? Cheers, Tom Gazzas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 He-111? Uncarina 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greif8 Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 Hi Tom thank you for the kind words. Thierry is correct, the cockpit belongs to the RoG Heinkel 111 H-6. I backdated the kit to resemble an H-2 as I built it as a Battle of Britain build. Ernest Gazzas and Uncarina 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monthebiff Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 Civil thread Tom and what a great hreat idea as I'm sure most of us have finished plenty of cockpits but not the rest if the plane it sits in!. So here a a few if mine over the years. Hs-129 Fokker E.I Bf-110 G4 Ju-87 R2 Ju-88 G10 Regards.
