Vinster Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 So I recently purchased the Hobbyboss easy Assembly sabre in German colours, mainly so I can try canopy masking whilst cutting the masks on the actual parts and so i can try some new weathering and pre-shading. But i noticed there are no painting instructions for the cockpit and I've had a hard time finding much info on the cockpit of the German sabres, does anyone have any links to where i should look or any idea. If I had to I would paint the interior either a grey or a green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BushBrit66 Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 If they were Canadair built, probably black interiors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some early Mk.5s may have as well, but no hard information on that. But most Mk.5s and all Mk.6s had gray cockpits. I´ve checked several cockpit pictures inside the F-40 book of German Mk.5 and Mk.6 and can confirm that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julien Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 The Hobbyboss 1/72 Sabre is actually an F-86F-40 not a Sabre 5 or 6 Julien 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
