In my defence, the proportions of the thing look very odd.....I've just looked at some drawings of the real thing and it seems that's how it actually was! Apologies. Aha thanks for posting this. I've wondered if Airfix left off the seat cushions and your image proves it. And from how the cushions are colored (this can also be seen on inside photos of preserved AC) it appears as if the covers weren't leather but a sort of a plastic. Saves me from having to do more research Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Learstang Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Excellent work on that Mitchell! She looks a treat in the desert camouflage! I see you didn't try and give it that pinkish colour that you see on some - I'd be afraid to try and reproduce that colour. I increasingly see this kit in my future...
