    Works getting in my way again but making up so wires to further detail the back end of the cockpit and this really is testing me. Also started to weather the ejection seat which I do have pics of.

        Hi Mick
        Cockpit details are superb. The seat is stunning. Cracking job, going the extra mile for sure.

          That reminds me that I found a site full of detailed F-16 photos a few years ago when I built a Dutch display version. Now, where was that site?

          Aha: here it is.

                Fabulous work on the seat Mick. To echo Andy, it looks real.

                            Excellent work on the seats.

                            Ref the screws, I actually like that as it helps ensure the parts are fixed in exactly the right position. When I did mine I reinforced the screws by applying some extra thin cement as well.

                            .When you get to the markings do be careful of the Tamiya decals. I really would recommend dumping them for decent aftermarket.

                                Did a bit of work on the wiring, just going to tidy it up then stop. Could go on for ages but just wanted to fill the space a little. This whole are is black so it will blend in nicely
