First 'stop' .... Pavla seats are far too wide for the kit bathtub. It's not possible to trim them enoug to fit inside ... So I'll use the kit seats , which are also too wide, but no so much that can't be trimmed to fit.
Cockpit decals from the kit. Very good and accurate, but not por a C but for ZA. Not really a problem as the kit has enough parts to make a ZA.Decals reacted very well to Micro-Sol. Interior Tamiya XF53
Finished instrument panels. Dials were painted with Humbrol Clear Fix and I must say I'm very happy with the result. Ejection handles have been made from red electric wire. Some weathering went on.... Seats Tamiya XF53 and Gunze H421
It should've been an easy project with a bit of added detail and aftermarket decals, but not to be finnished in just a Week-end.

But I'd like to ,,,,,
So let's see how it turns out ,,,,
Pavla seats were discarded ... too big for the cockpit.
Interior : Tamiya XF-53 , XF-22
Seats : Tamiya XF-63 , Gunze H421
Undersides : Gunze H325
Uppersides : Gunze H27 , Gunze (20 H1+12 H27 + 3 H325
All brush painted
In the end the project took much more time than I'd expected. Not an easy shake and bake kit .... at least to me.
