...And here is the front right console. Nothing hard this time!
This concludes the approaching walk to the real leading spot of all the build: the FRONT PANEL! (Tah -Daaaaa!) Stay tuned for next episodes! The great fun begins! |

Here is the first batch of front panels. I've completed F5, F6 and F7. Still to do the translational command joystick on F5 and all the knobs in monitors lower section. They won't be realized with paper, probably I'll had to use plastic rod as I'm not totally mad (as - maybe - it can appear!) considering they are less than 1 mm in diameter at this scale.
The low-angle photos let you see better the multi-layer structure of the panels and the semi-gloss appearance of the screens that I find very realistic. |

1:16 Space Shuttle Flight Deck
Absolutely amazing work, Tonino!
The finished flight deck is going be a wonder of minute detail... Best, Bengt in Stockholm |

Thanks Bengt! You're always ready to save my day
Now let's complete the dashboard. First of all the F8, nothing new here. For the F9, instead, I had to do something different. As here we have the only "old style" analogic gauges in all the cabin I decided to put a piece of "glass" in front of the dials. So, eventually, the panel will have a 4 layer structure. Too much thickness? Yes, effectively to fit the panel I had to remove part of the base piece because the added thickness prevented panel to lay flat on the surface. Next I realized the translational hand controller and, finally, the air ventilation components (at least I think those semicircular pieces are air vents...). |

The amount of detail you keep adding is astounding. I for one cannot wait to see this one finished. It'll be incredible, I'm sure.

wow! I think you are starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel
... at least for the interior. Then the exterior, organize the part's sheets, the instructions ... O_O still a long way. But I know you have the skill, the constance and determination to complete this incredible endeavour. Best, Nando

Excellent work Tonino. As has been said, the amount of detail you have managed to put in at this scale is mind-boggling. I may not be posting much in this thread but I am watching your project grow and grow. Great job!
