I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

Nice work. I think this is the same corrugated styrene that I used on my scratched Tin Goose. Bravo!

The gauges look so real. Nice job!

Just brilliant work. Love the photos of the bezels' shading to give it a 3-D effect. Very well executed. You did great.

Naw, aluminum painted black will work.

Huey, I guess the mounting bracket for the compass should be brass too?

Dad has a 1,000 hours in one of these, so he should be able to answer. Turn Coordinator top middle. Oil temp bottom right? Oil pressure bottom left?

The one on the right is a tachometer, far left could be an airspeed. Don't know about the others, can't read them. Make sure you use brass screw on the compas install, don't want to mess up the compas.

These are photos that I downloaded and then had my wife scale to size and print on glossy photo paper which I then cut out to mount on a thin plywood base (for the inst. panel) before insertion into the cockpit (2). Only the compass housing and brackets will be 3D. Sorry if you thought I was good enough to actually build this. My only talent is adapting things I find to fit a need. I'll have to get back to you on the names and functions of the various gauges.

That looks super precise! Would you please name the gages and instruments? Curious as to what they really were...

Really nice work.

Still have to fabricate the compass housing and mounting bracket.

Looks beautiful Biplane. Can't wait to see the finish.

Not only variations in widths of the bands but also in the reds and blues. On aircraft with a camo scheme they are darker, the blue being close to black.

David, you can see in this pic the difference in the roundels from those on the Mosquito. I had no idea there were so many variations.

Replication goal

David, I'm afraid that this 1/6 scale Tiggie is going to require some larger sizes than you so graciously offered. I really appreciate the offer though. I sent pictures of the Moth I'd like to duplicate to Callie Graphics for an estimate and should hear back from her this week. Merry Christmas and best wishes for the new year. Keith

The roundels used on the fuselage of the Mosquito are 49mm diameter. I have two of those and two which are 40mm plus two of the larger ones on the wings. I'll be glad to send them if you can use them. Ask James to email me your address.
