Hawker Hurricane 1/12 scale scratch build

In the meantime, I have fitted the fuel/oil pressure instruments and the rest of the instruments.

Oil/Fuel pressure gauge installed...

The next one is the plate for the spare lamp stowage (rev. gun sight).

This is how it should look in the original. Thanks Steven Smart for the picture!

At first I wanted to thermoform the glass domes of the bulbs, but I'm not satisfied with the shape. 😣

In the end I used plexiglass rod.  To form the sphere, an insert of a hole punch is suitable.

The glass dome looks more realistic now. 😁

At the front you can see the unsuccessful attempts at deep-drawn plastic...but not the typical pear shape.

Pics not showing?

Finally all instruments in place. It still needs some touch-up paint here and there.

Hi Thomas.

I can see the turned bulb image and the (amazing) finished panel pic if that helps?

[hurribomber]

can you see the picture of the gunsight? Then all images should actually be visible...? I hope so?

Unfortunately not, sorry Thomas. 

 

Previous images are visible but of those posted today only the two i mentioned earlier are visible on my device.

... Ahh, now Imgur is working again ! - it was temporarily down.

Thanks for the feedback. I probably did something wrong when using Flickr as I'm not completely familiar with it yet. I'll try to upload the pictures again.
