Author	Topic: Who has the WW2 Cockpit Photo book..
Tailslide Pilot	posted 07-16- 12:08 AM I need a scan of the Yak-3 picture from it very badly but $50 is a bit much for one photo It shows the instruments very clearly. TS IP: Logged
Jeeves Pilot	posted 07-16- 12:21 AM Well TS... I am sorry that I don't have the book to help you-- I did see it the other day, but I'm broke! But you can help me I think...I am building a Yak-1 and a Il-2 plastic model and the paint guide says the cockpits were a color that I can't find anywhere...but your Yak pit seems to match pretty well-- is there a name to it? Or what the hell do I mix to get that color? Thanks... ------------------ Brought to you by the campaign for a better Dauntless! IP: Logged

Jerry Pilot	posted 07-16- 12:26 PM TS, if all else fails try your local library. If they don't have it they can do an inter-library search and get it elsewhere. Are you US? It's done commonly here. I've gotten books out of state many times. IP: Logged
Tailslide Pilot	posted 07-16- 01:55 PM Thanks Lucky! That would be great! I based my current yak 3 instrument textures on one in a museum somewhere that wasn't too careful about what guages they stuck in there TS IP: Logged
