I think the photo are grat but seeing that you have pointed out this guys leaving out some things, leads me to think you should pass over the Pro Art kit and take up the "hassle" and I quote you and scratch-build something on this level and put all the right things in place. I know I would love to see you take on this most amazing task as I and so mini othere's here are doing..

Its very nice work indeed. I've scratchbuilt an interior for one of mine too (over a year ago), got pissed off constructing the flimsy Eduard slat armour and now the kit is on the long finger..

This guy seems to of had the same unavoidable problem with scratchbuilding the interrior as I had. If you look at the photo you will see at the bottom a raised rectangular panel that runs along the centre line between the crew seats. It starts at the rear hatch and continues along the centre up to the front section of the inner hull. This cant be removed without reworking the entire underside of the hull, its a HUGE job if you want to correct it properly. Its pretty noticible on this conversion and on mine but i intended to hide this by filling either side of the raised panel slighty and by clustering the rear interrior with figures and equipment..

It sounds complicated but i think this is why there hasnt been a rush of interior updates from aftermarket companies..

I'm just after moving home so when the dust settles I'll attach some of my photos to the thread...
