this is my first time with PE.horrible stuff haha

Haha they are a pain in the ***. With that being said, your first time started out infinitely better than my first time. It was a total mess and I lost so many pieces to the carpet monster

Sprue Bros has an update cockpit set for the Trump kit with an ACS, thru the Steel Beach line. I mastered the Instrument panel for Darren. The set comes with a throttle and stick as well. Erick

pulled it out of the box today and had another look,the rear cockpit not being right for our supers really pisses me off and is putting me off going any further.

Have you thought about trying to get a cockpit from the trumpy growler kit as spares?

Hey Nimrod,yes i had a good think about that last night.not sure where to acquire one though.

In the meantime i got some done and will push forward as much as i can till i sort something out for the tub.

I have an MB-326 Macchi (done as a roulette) on the go so most of my effort will go into that.

Have look at this... http://store.spruebrothers.com/product_p/sba32012.htm

Might help? You would have to talk to Mr steel beach himself. He lurks on these forums sometimes.

Or there's this from Eduard https://www.whiteensignmodels.com/p/Eduard+132+EA18G+Growler+interior+self+adhesive+Trumpeter+ED33102/14798/#.Uws63XM_7qA

Dude you can't let the ip hold you up. This is looking stellar and I would hate to see you shelf this thing. If I had a super id'e donate the ip just to see you finish it.

Unfortunately I only have the C model. I have been looking into buying a growler and if I do you will be the first one on my list because the rear ip I would not have any problem donating to you.

Keep up the awesome work I am really looking forward to seeing more.
