Bruce, you weathered that seat brilliantly man! The wear on the seat is perfect. I seriously believe you got this down pat. I'd say add the flight controls and then test fit so you can see how everything fits. As for the 'static' I consider myself blessed that I don't ever see it. I guess I'm simply on the right forums since there is nobody on any of them that post such idiocy. It's also why I stay off posting my work on Facebook for the most part. There's a few sites I'll post my 1/72 scale armor on, but that's only because I already know who's there and they are like everyone here.
Keep it going Bruce and, as Parker from Leverage said: "Ignore the distraction; work the problem."
Rock on my friend!

Mark,
Thank you so much for following along and writing your comments. I sincerely appreciate your words and everything—and I mean your work, and your stewardship of those in the hobby and gaming worlds—you are doing is deeply honorable. I have been meaning to write a specific thread about the amount you and others here give back to the hobby. However, I want you to know that what you are doing to inspire others means there will be a future for the hobby.

Your cockpit is coming along exceptionally well. I might have a Messerschmitt I could add to this Group Build. Maybe....

Thank you for your comments. I do hope you join, Mark. I am trying hard to keep the work very straightforward to use the superb fit of the kit to my advantage. I still wanna cram details galore inside as long as things will fit.

I really, really like the effect you got in that seat. And the feet rest area looks very nice too. Those two pieces work very well with each other. You’re doing great!
