Ok, so I got super bored at work today and decided to experiment with some of bricke94 interiors. Being a little too prestine and factory fresh, I decided to mess them up a little. Mind you, I have zero experience repainting, but, anywho, I love that used and abused, zero tlc, and terrible owner look. Maybe a little over the top, but, still a work in progress.

Re: My worn cockpit :(
Great idea! Will you be sharing your work when finished? Would love a nice jacked up panel myself
Thanks!
Chris
Thanks!

Re: My worn cockpit :(
When I'm happy with it I will definitely share. I'd love to figure out how to make some nice deep sun cracks on the dash....hmmmm. Would also like to work on a worn exterior as well, but that is a little bit more intimidating at this point.
Re: My worn cockpit :(
For someone with no repainting experience, your sure doing a good job. I wouldn't even know where to start.

Re: My worn cockpit :(
GPS has had a little use...
Carpet still not too bad, but is that gum???
From the copilots chair...hope this thing runs.
Ceiling has seen better days, but then again, how old is this plane again???
And this is what happens in the hot Florida sun. Needs cracks, working on it.

Looks great! I would think the buttons on the GPS would be barely readable from the thousands of finger presses over the years and the bleaching in the sun. Other than that it is looking real good.

I would love to have that paint! It would go good with my old bakelite gas cap. I just started painting tonight. First use of PS.

We need a seriously trashed exterior to match.

Re: My worn cockpit :(
Interesting and certainly looks like some of the bangers I've been around lol
Just one comment though dont go too mental with the addition of the wear, sometimes some subtle wear is best.
thanks,
Lewis
