Hi All
As some of you know I have been trying out the Authentikit replica spitfire controls . I decided that the 3d printed parts looked too clean so I decide to put some of my model weathering experience to use on the throttle quadrant , and trim wheels . In the pic the weathering looks harsh , due to the closeness but it is a little more subtle in reality and I am pleased with it , also I added the the chassis lever to the collection , a but have not weathered or scratched it up yet I paint the handle knob, and center screw in bronze , but will try a more brass effect after seeing some archive pictures

Chassis lever finished now weathered up nice, JacksMaxx says I should go the whole hog and get the spade grip , still researching it though I am not entirely sure of its strength ,not the way I fly my spit anyway. It is a consideration though watch this space for it
