A bit of progress. The instrument panel is well, I can't find the proper words and stay decent.... However, the decal provided as instrument panel was great for start point for my work, as seen on the pictures of the real plane a lot of installation and the ejection seat is missing so I think all the instruments of the cockpit were taken out; so I used the decal to point the instruments and then make an empty instrument panel. On the sides of the cockpit all the electronics are taken out so I had to drill holes for missing panels. However this made a problem, the intake channel is part of cockpit so I had to make a styreen backside to prevent the light come thru the holes, painted it black to make deepness. With dry-fitting of the fuselage I could see the interior of the fuselage, first I thought painting it black would be enough but the fitting pins of the fuselage and cockpit would still be visible so I made some intake channel imitation to hide this parts. Not fitted and putty perfectly I know but it would do.... And some work on the fuselage
