(I haven't decided which scheme yet).

That top scheme looks tasty, Wez ;)

Sorry mate, I'm from the punk generation, ABBA was music my mum listened to (mind you, Agnetha and Anni-Frid...)

I'd probably pick Blink-182 :)

Yes, I'm torn between that and the one beneath it with the red ring around the nose.

 I'm quite fond of some of Blink 182's stuff too...

Looking at this website amongst others at the Tunnan cockpit, it can be seen that the internal structure for the Tunnan's cockpit is a curious shade of green. I think the same colour was used on the Lansen and Draken, Pavla say interior green (as in US interior green), but that shade is too yellow compared to what I can make out in the photos, this to me is at the bluer end of the spectrum, suggestions anyone?  Andreas  @Rudolf_Filip, what are you going to use for your Lansen?

 

Ohhh, the irony... 

That picture of the J 29F cockpit is taken at Ängelholms flygmuseum here in Sweden where I work. 

I actually painted and restored that very cockpit... 😀  

 

When I built my 1/48 scale Tunnan (Pilot Replicas) I used the good old Humbrol 30. 

In my Lansen I decided that most of the cockpit won't be seen anyway and sprayed whatever dark green I had close to my airbrush. I think it was the dark green from the Draken camouflage from MRP.
