My RAP-id Progress report.... 1/48 Italieri F22 Raptor....A madness o

[cabo91]

Okay, I've been seeing another person doing a Raptor and I was so impressed that I decided to do my own. Since I saw how much detailing folks were putting in, I thought it okay to do some myself so as much as I love all the new Aires pits and wheel wells, I thought, why not try it. Now, I didn't care about accuracy as much as I did having something nice to look at. I'm toying with the idea of casting it so that if I make another, I can have some copies ready. The other shot is some castings I've made of Eagle controls so that I can use the screens to scratchbuild other cockpits.....hope you all like this stuff!!!, Please let me know and if you have any ideas that would help, feel free!!

I must say those cockpit displays will look WAY off if you're going to put it in your Raptor.

Nope, wrong pics. I've chopped the panels apart for just the computer screens. I'm doing it based on a book that had some really nice pics in it. Based on what I saw, it's 5 large screens.. One on top to the left, three across the center and one on the bottom. However, if you can lend some input though, I'd be really greatful.

I'm happy to provide these reference pics and hope they will help show what the current Raptor cockpit layout looks like. These pics are in the public domain and don't show anything classified.

Hope these will help you out.
