Tornado GR1 cockpits for Lifecast Ltd
Our old pal and colleague John Schoonraad over at Lifecast needed help building a split pair of GR1 cockpits, initially taken as a mould from the real jet front end, but we resculpted a lot of it, vac-formed the cockpit windows, and fabricated the unmouldable details, cannons etc. We then split the sections and painted one up in Gulf War colours and decals, the other a more Cold War era paint scheme. Loads of fun and lots of crunchy research involved. I think we also threw in a scratch-built Lewis gun for the client, an aviation museum.
