| No, they are not LEDs, what ever LEDs are, They are blobs of white glue at the end of modeling pins, and painted. |

| Nice detailing...are those LEDs on the levers? |

| Yea, the belts are pretty slick. Do you purchase those as a set? |

| In total I spent 21/2 days on the cockpit components. I'm just thankful that there is as much information available on the internet as there is. |

The seats, while i thought would be a problem, turned out to be quite simple. The Eduard prepainted photo etched seat belts add quite a nice detail. |

The console that sits just below the instrument panel was the most interesting piece of the components to build. |

The cockpit components are finished and ready to be installed in the cockpit. However, I'm not going to install them in the cockpit until the B-26 is painted. All have been pre-fitted. |

| Now THAT is a pic of a true master modeller, whoever it was. Jerry, looks like the Marauder's coming along well. |

The instrument panel. I also bought a 1/48 scale Eduard photo etched cockpit for reference, t is excellent, especially the illustrated instructions. |

With the papering done it is time to start working on some details. The following are some cdockpit reference photos that I took off the internet as well as some drawings I made from material I could not print out. |

The cowlng and airscoops with some sanding fit nicely. After looking closely at the airscoops I decided to paint the intakes black instead of cutting them out. |

The tail surfaces especially came out nice. |

got the papering done. The every thing went well except the fuselage, I ad to remove and replace a numbe of small sections. |

| My kind of model!! |

| Looking good. A lot of layup work but well worth the effort. |

| Very nice work. I also use the dremel and it makes the extra notch cutting a snap. |
| jerry campbell, Comment for image # 3636 | 20 Jul 07 00:28 |
| I added about twice as many stringers as the kit called for, and my notch cutting Dremel tool was money well spent. The instructions were a little vague a couple of times, but Dumas engineering is excellent once I figured out the instructions. |
