I had a look at your pictures. Nice work. I am considering trying building the cockpit in one of my next projects.(Other than open cockpit a la Peashooter) What are you using for windscreen/windows?

The window voids will be masked from the rear and filled with clear casting resin,at least that is the plan Lou,whether it will work is another thing,I have to say that Kenjis method gave me much pleasure in the hollowing out process and a chance to use those half round chisels.

Another nice one!
I love the designs from the 1930's, can't help myself.

I agree I.Java they have such character and make lovely subjects for model building.
