Instrument panel - Yahu. (And paint blob - a relic from my airbrush misfortune the other night!)

They look fine to me Rich! I think sometimes we’re overly critical; yes for sure we do need better looking parts on occasion but an objective assessment needs to be made about just how much improvement AM parts offer. 

 

Wise words Max.

Looks good, Rich! I know there are a lot of options out there these days, but I've always felt that Yahu make the most convincing aftermarket instrument panels.

Thanks Kev. Yeah, they’re definitely my go-to.. Though I’d like to try a full Quinta set at some point.

Nice one Rich, Max is spot on sometimes AM is not necessary.

Yahu is also my go to IP supplier, I have just got a nice delivery from Mr Hannants of 5 Yahu pieces of kit for future projects.

It's great that your dental P47 is still with you, pretty amazing.

 

Cheers

Holy cow, that panel looks the part, I’ll have to try a Yahu part down the road….

Yeah, they are consistently good!

[Dpgsbody55]

Hmmm....  Might have to try a Yahu panel in the future.  That looks very good.

Hmmm, I've just done a Yahu search for an I/P for a 1/32 Typhoon....yes they do a 1/24 one, and a 1/48 one....and a Tempest in 1/32, but a Typhoon?  Nope! 

[Shoggz]

That’s a damn shame Max..

Have spent the whole evening painting details in the cockpit - and I've still got some way to go!

 

 

 

I've looked at a load of photos to try and discern the level of black vs green in the cockpit.. I'll be fine tuning for some time yet!

If it helps I use to hit the bottle (Baileys) after a hard endless session spent perusing the net for help …

Cockpit is looking good.  Very nicely weathered too.
