My reference books show the cockpit much darker. Black being the dominant colour.
Agree with that. Observations for improvements: The green interior seems a bit bright. IMO, the cockpit look is the best part of this offering. I only wish V had put a little more effort into the polished exterior skin and panel lines, add a few more polys to curved items as FS2020 could easily support them. Trailing smoke effects missing from the prop engines. Does not appear to have any contrail effects. Above a certain altitude, the engine audio is muted. I tried to bring it into FS2024 without success. That's probably blocked by Microsoft. The aircraft adds that 1950s nostalga we are looking for.

Gotta get used to painting in MSFS - may need some help. But this is a B-36D 44-92026 of the 7th Bomb Wing, 8th Air Force around 1951. The fuselage is a first attempt and uses the old P3Dv5 paint as a basis. I've yet to do the wings but they will be done similarly.
I'm going to re-make the panel lines and rivets and... Oh sh*t!! ...I've left the old anti-glare panel in the green channel!!
Ah well, you get the idea! As I was saying, I'm going to remake the panels/rivets and make new normal maps (with which I might need a hand).
