Pit as good as done. One thing missing from the Quinta set is the oxy regulator on the right sidewall. I took that of the Kitsworld set.

After some matt varnish. Perfect for some additional washes and scratches. Getting close to closing the fuselage.

Busy with the HGW harnesses. This usually takes me three evenings. Almost done. Just need to drape and glue the straps into position. And then seal it all in with matt varnish, followed by a wash. The drawing shows an early Sutton harness and how it was attached. No Whirlwind but probably quite similar.

Working on the Seat going by reference material. You can see how the early sutton harness is attached to the seat. I love using the AK weathering pencils to get a worn look. The leather will get some more lighter areas along the edges.

Slowly getting there. Next up: HGW seatbelts

Everywhere and nowhere. Just scored some Whirlwind crash parts. Need to verify their authenticity if possible. Got those from Ebay.

Just got this amazing book. A real must have!

This is my favorite part. Adding life to the pit. Still a long way to go.

Slowly bringing life to the cockpit.

Started adding the Quinta decals and some washes. Lot’s more work to be done!

Started to put it all together and add wiring.

Alclad white aliminium with a bit of chrome is on.

Primed the inside of the fuselage. Check out the Kitsworld detail set. I havent touched it but it’s starting to fall apart. Really poor quality. I would recommend the Quinta Studio set.

Love it!

Pretty happy with my new radio print
