Finished installing all dividers, and assemble some of the devices. I also laminated the panel at the back with black paper, in order to avoid LEDs shining through. But I forgot to take a picture.

I mainly use Zvezda liquid acrylic paints, but when I need a specific color, I use regular acrylic paints.

After 3 hours, I have completed only 2/3 of the entire panel. I just ran out of details. Ruler for visualizing scale

I continue to build. I prepared the safety dividers from accidentally turning on the toggle switches. I used a 0.4 mm steel wire wrapped around a 1 mm needle. then cut the dividers themselves. How many did, not count. Some were leveled with pliers. Then I made holes for their...

Result of today's work

And it also seemed to me that the panel joint should look normal, and since 2 layers were already laminated, I had to come up with a way to style this joint. I used Tamiya's tape for protection, cut through the sheet slightly, and then scraped off some of the paper with the tip of a knife...

Remade the rotating handles, it is much better. And also installed all the rivets, only on this part there are more than 100 of them, and 2 hours of work. Before and after

I also forgot to add, it is important to glue the imitation of rotating parts on thin cardboard. Otherwise, they look very thin and unnatural. It is these details that I will redo and glue them again.

Thank you, I went to this for a very long time.

Here is the problem I was talking about. This is not a big problem to solve, but need to be very careful, for not to reprint these details.

As I will return home, I will show what the problem is. There are minor shifts of screens in relation to the holes. This is not a problem of scale or print, it is the problem in the file. Perhaps this is a Ken's mistake.

I will try to keep the most detailed report on the build. There are round and rounded holes in the panel, it is better to punch them with punches than to cut with a knife. I used super small punches made of medical metal needles.

Yes, I have already bought a model on this site, but I still have questions for Ken. I hope to answer. By the way, if anyone is going to build the model, the bottom layer of the main control panel does not exactly match the holes. Before printing, it is better to correct the position of the...

I am going to make them from bga soldering balls. I wanted to buy them for a long time, and I bought them in a store with electronic components. They are not very expensive for a bottle with 25 000 balls, I paid a little more than 3$ They come in various sizes from 0.2mm to 0.76mm. I have...

I wrote to him, but have not received an answer yet.

Instruction - SECTION 5 Started with the Main control panel. After looking at several assemblies, it seemed to me that there were not enough rivets. How do you like these rivets, like real ones?

So I only printed the module, LES will print later. I decided to print on 190 gsm paper. Also i have prepared but not yet printed the dashboard lighting mask. I will print on film and tracing paper, I don't know yet what will look better.

It is possible that I did not quite accurately assemble the nose cone, I simply did not give it the desired shape, and therefore it does not want to be fits into its place.

Up to this point everything was going well, the connectivity was very good. But I found a problem, if you glue the panel exactly in its place, then the nose cone is not inserted as needed. I had to tear it off and moved it by ~ 1.5 mm inward. But still, it does not fit into place as it...

Finished small details and cockpit frame.
