    The gauges are there, there's really good detail on all the pieces.

      I'm looking at the plastic parts Motion has. They just don't look as detailed as the parts you and others had printed. Hopefully I'm mistaken.

        I just don't think the picture shows the detail.

          Yeah, there is no contrast to see the details with those white parts. You'll find the detail on the parts is very nice.

            So I was told by MRC that the Nose Gear Doors were not in the container from last Thursday, so they don't know when they will be in. They said all parts received last week will be on the website by tomorrow. So I guess I'll complete my model without them... :Angry:

                        Those 3-D parts look pretty good. Except for the machine guns. They look like something made out of Legos.

                          Prowler was right, not enough contrast in the site photo. My detail parts arrived and the dash looks good as well as the throttle quadrant and bomb sights. The guns are OK. I am wondering about that lone pivot mount though. I know it was asked about previously but I still don't know where it would go. Maybe there should be two for the waist guns? Or is it for the nose?

                          If I can get a couple good pics I'll try to post them.

                              The 3D parts are very detailed !! I got mine yesterday and was very impressed,

                                    Ahhh, a little contrast makes a big difference.
                                    Much more detail than on the site photo.
                                    Maybe they should do the same?

                                    Now, how the heck am I gonna paint these things :Confused:
