Interior is done. Started thinking about carving out the mesh seat backs but after a few attempts I’m unhappy with the result. Just going to leave it as is since the Eduard kit is more than the total cost of the kit.

Chinook interior ready to be buttoned up. Just simple weathering to give the effect of dirt and oil build up

Before you button it up, don’t forget to take some Tamiya Clear Red and put hydraulic fluid leaks everywhere. All the Chinooks I rode on got about 100 miles to the quart.

Used AK fuel stains to try and replicate hydraulic leaks. It leaves a glossy red stain. Not sure how visible it is in photos but it’s there

Nice (and fast!) work going on here!

My progress on the Eduard P-51B:

The fuselage has since been closed up. A little tricky getting things lined up in a couple of places, and placement instructions not always real clear, but by taking my time it’s going together nicely.
