Alright, the build comes to an end on the modeling part of it. Its been fun friends, Thank you all for sharing you input and knowledge of the panel. I will post more pics of the panel I have after I've finished painting it, which I am in the process of doing now.

Slowly getting there, 1st layer of Black Acrylic paint. Will touch up some parts of the panel. Also have strengthened the bottom of the panel with some casting resin. Seems to work and with that sanded down some areas where the resin got on the top part of the panel. Have started to paint the buttons. What do you think?

Making just the base plate would be cool to make it functional. Cool prop though!

By "Making just the base plate" you mean to get rid of the buttons all together or make it so that the buttons have room to move? Im not sure I'm understanding what you mean by this. :?:

Sorry went kayaking and got too much sun :). But make the plate and buttons separately so that you could attach switches. I would think that would be hard though.

Random question Nathan but what would the 3rd button be used for of it was functional? Seems like the 4th is for that microphone and who knows about the blue and red but I'm confused on the third. Not that it matters because they weren't functional but I'm always curious lol. Still trying to figure out how to make them functional. I think it could be done if they're anything like a mustang one which they should.
