I won this Revell Mk1 Viper on E-bay. Unlike the later Mobeius Mk2 and VII this is a basic 1970's kit, designed more for kids who were fans of the show (as I was, but couldn't get hold of the kit at the time ) Anyway, it has no cockpit detail at all. Not much of a problem as it has no cockpit glass either....
So the first thing to do is open the windows...
Then start building a cockpit. I decided, rather than stay true to the 1970's version, I would make this a true Mk1 in respect to the Mk2 I already have. I.E, I can't scratchbuild an accurate cockpit, so I'm making it up.....
Nose leg bay, "borrowed" from a 1/48 Tornado. This kit also has no landing gear, as it was hardly seen in the series. Again, I am not being true to the series here.
Cockpit so far
The seat may look familiar to some... borrowed from a Revell Hawk
