I know we've covered instrumentation a few times but I found these lovely sharp print-ready jpegs of dials on tinternet just now and thought they may help. I cut and paste them into powerpoint to adjust size and position, then printed onto photo paper.
In passing, another good source of info and even scale instrument panel drawings is manufacturers' own websites, if you're building something modern, e.g. ... https://www.dg-flugzeugbau.de/en/downloads

Re: Cockpit Instruments
Hi Vince - I got them from a website used by flight-simulator modellers. I've trawled through the websites of many full-size instrument manufacturers and the ones I cross-checked (e.g. the Winter altimeter) are an excellent match. Good enough for me anyway

Re: Cockpit Instruments
Hi Rog,
Used your instrument pic and PowerPoint method yesterday to create the three faces I need for my 1/3 scale Ka3. Worked a treat! Bit of experimentation with the sizing, printing onto normal paper before committing to the photo quality material and hey presto!!
Thanks for sharing the idea.
