EF-2000 Typhoon Cockpit Sidewall Pics Needed

[Marcel111]

I wonder if anybody out there can share any cockpit sidewall pics? Starting my 1/32 pit and have not found much on the web.

Thanks,

Marcel

There is a good one of the starboard sidewall in this post:

To my knowledge, there are no good pictures of the port sidewall. This may be of some help, but it isn't great:

Thx! Had those two already though, strange that there is nothing out there.

Cheers,

Have a look Here - Britmodeller Typhoon Ref pics

I think the main problem is that the crew ladder is almost always placed on the port side, so you only get pictures of the starboard sidewall from there. There is also a severe angle to the sidewalls, so pictures straight down are no good. In fact, when there is cockpit maintenance they put guards over both cockpit edges that further obscure the sidewalls. It should be easier to take pictures of sidewalls in the ASTA Typhoon simulator which pretty much has an identical cockpit, but it seems no one has done so.

Here is another picture that only shows a tiny bit, but it's enough to show that the forward part of the port sideboard is featureless.

The sidewalls are largely featureless, but it is very difficult to get photos of them due to the shape of the cockpit and the usual location of the crew access ladder.

Colour-wise, all the grey areas FS 36231 with the controls picked up in FS 36081. Black areas are matt black.
