I think it's hilarious that the last two seats are narrower to fit in the fuselage. Well played, Lockheed. Well played.

Actually I thought they were meant for cabin attendents. ;)

And I'd love to volunteer for the primary painter position, but I am not nearly confident enough in my bare metal-fu to take on that challenge.

Same for me, I'm afraid. :( I don't have the proper tools nor the skill to create a bare metal skin. When it comes to repainting on a metal skin, it is a different story.

Cheers,

Been busy constructing the cabin and cockpit interiors and have made excellent progress with the cabin mostly complete.

In the cockpit I thought this beauty needed new seats and yoke stems so that has been a part of today's activity.

Got the exterior lights in place now and its ready for mapping as is the cabin.

The cockpit will take some time yet with so much to do although the new pilots seem to feel at home there.
 
Awesome! Milton, it is shaping up really well. Thanks for the flaps photo with the L18 upside down!! (an earlier reply to my first post about the flaps, on this great thread ) Thank you so much for your hard work and time.
 
Thanks for your interest and comments. I am looking forward to getting the VC done so that the texture mapping process can start. :)

For those who haven't textured interiors, it is more fun than you might imagine. So many possibilities. :) And, a lot easier to do than the exterior.
 
Working on the other engine cowling; definitely looks different.

LOL Whoops, someone stole my fuselage. :dizzy:
 
Thanks folks; I am now at a standstill until I receive some goodies in the mail from Maarten that will help to authenticate the cockpit layout and gauges. That should arrive this week.

Meanwhile Nigel and Duckie are making excellent progress with the Republic XP47J/H VC textures.

So, I will now go over the progress here and cleanup any issues, add a few cabin accessories, and group up my L-18/C-56/57/59/60A engine options and radio antenna inventory selections for ease of application.
Not looking for a lot of model variants here aside from basic engine cowling and cabin differences, military and civilian. Your thoughts appreciated.
