Just seen this one Steve, a very nice looking/detailed kit, and a cracking start. The black armour plate does make a striking difference.
It's weird isn't it? Much of most aircrafts' cockpits will be barely visible once the model is completed and yet it's an area that we love to produce in great detail, the more the better. The best manufacturers produce very detailed cockpits and if that's not enough, there are aftermarket 'improvements' available too.A great pity much of this excellent work won't be seen

Ain't that the truth. A guilty pleasure I too indulge in. Not every time but once in a while I go all in and add all the detail that can be found. I think its the challenge of actually doing it more than looking at it after.It's weird isn't it?

The Spitfire at least has the advantage that you can leave the door open. OTOH, it has the disadvantage that the canopy is relatively small compared to many of its contemporaries … But it’s been my experience with models of tanks that you can see a lot more of the interior than you would think through those tiny hatches, so I suppose it’s not that different with aircraft.Much of most aircrafts' cockpits will be barely visible once the model is completed
