Yes not many parts, but with it having a large/ish cockpit I may try and scratch some detail.

 

[Tim Marlow]

Sounds good!

Now that would be cool Ian. Do you have any references for it???

Ok made a start on this. I’m going to try and build the cockpit, with there being some room.
This is what I’m going for
And this is what I’ve done so far.

 

[papa 695]

Just to show how the others look

This one’s a fish Chris
Cockpit work looks great Ian. Bringing this one up a notch or two.

 

[yak face]

Excellent scratching Ian , it definitely needed something in there with that huge windscreen

Ian,
Great work on the cockpit mate this will make a great companion for the other machines.

 

[papa 695]

Got a little more work done.

 

[papa 695]

Well I’ve finally had some time for modelling. Got a lot of the cockpit ( for a better word) done. The seat is not fitted, I’m going to try and make a figure for it.

 

[Tim Marlow]

Lovin’ it!

 

[monica]

That's beautiful! The skipper's seat is better than the Super-Marionation original!
