Project Galactica
Cockpit tub with Tamiya tape straps and copper wire ejection handles.
Painted result
The straps look a bit cartoony (is that a word???) but not bad for a first attempt at such a thing.
Fitted in the fuselage
Landing gear installed after painting (which is necessary as you cannot install them later)

Scratch built ladder. A bit basic, but good enough.
Diorama base (a cake stand I painted, would you believe)
Beautiful 1/32 Reedoak figures. Like the cart, these are USN, but close enough.
