From the upper left corne, clockwiser:
Cockpit floor/bomb-bay roof. Dark red rectangles represent the fuselage fuel tanks
Main instrument panel. Just enough engraved detail, barely. Engine instruments are on the left- 2x RPM, boost, oil pressure, temperature. The last three have color-coded surrounds on the guages- red, yellow, blue. Blind flying panel is top center- on the real thing it appears to have been a (Tiger?) Moth part re-used- the top has the curve of a single seater. The column at the center includes the flap, landing gear and bomb-bay door control levers at the top, aeleron trim at the bottom and other odds and ends. Below the blind flying panel are important things like magneto switches, warning lights, gaugues other-than blind-flying or engine monitoring... The little sliver on the right includes the two, big, prop-feathering buttons, more switches, and the beam navigation L/R indicator.
Top center, the PR/B control yoke. The Monogram kit contains a fighter/FB nose as well as the PR/B nose that's molded on., and the fighter 'stick' is included tool.
The two kit seats are identical, cheap to tool, completely inaccurate, with raised belt detail. Pretty good for when they come from.
Half in and hlaf out in the upper right, the radio shelf at the back of the cockpit, I'll describe it in another description
Tail-wheel. Mosquito tail wheels retracted, though there were no doors. The kit part is one piece for the tire, wheel, fork and strut. Economical, and a good fill-and-paint job will make a big difference.
The grey-green blob is a main-gear mud-guard. The real ones had two ribs, the kit has only one, with no lightening holes. Oh well!
Main wheels below that. Nice, block tread, right size, dual brakes as used on all but the earliest Mosquitos.
Bottom center, one propeller blade. Narrow chord, not Paddle blades. Very nice, as are spinners and backing plates.
Finally, bombs./ I found a drawing for Briltish Ariel bombs somewhere- the machined case at the front was painted dark green, with a light green stripe at or above the widest point, and a red and white double striped ring around the nose. However, once they were near an operational squadron, if not immediately upon acceptance, they were stored outdoors, in neat piles, which I have to believe would weather and stain the finish (Contemporary photos seen to suggest this too.) The relatively fragile tail fin assembly was unpacked and attached at the last possible moment, so it has a nice, clean, un-faded dark green. US practice was similar, with similar results. Others I haven't looked into.

The stomacher, in German aka "Stecker", is - in dolly terms - not really pinned onto the bodice as the German words suggests and was one possible habit in 18th c. getting-dressed.
It`s merely stuck underneath the lacing. The latter of which has to be laced up with the help of pins and can be somewhat tricky ;-P
As I have been unable to make up my mind about the new 59th line, I thought I would better take some pics of one of my vintage looking dolls, instead of trying to decide if I should spend more money on new dolls!
So here is Miss Monogram, modelling silkstone Delphine gown. The vanity was repainted and customized by me. Perfume bottles in green tones by me, on etsy.
I used my Edwardian Script
on this pillow. Love how it turned out! I hope the client loves it too. Too bad it's not mine because I sure like how it looks in front of my patchwork pillow.
