The ship is well underway since taking this picture.Most of the electrics are done and a lot of fine details to finish.

My weak point on all my models is the painting ,no matter how I recolve to take much more care with this item it always is a bit of a let down for me on completion..I tend to love the building part but dislike the painting

A superb kit with such great contents

If you’re intending to use the box-top colour scheme then you’ll need to cover that grey primer with white primer first. The top colours are very dependent on the primer for depth, and trying to paint white and cream onto grey primer is guranteed to give you a headache.

(I built the model on the box label BTW)

Firstly hi Dave

 

Many thanks for your suggestion I will take that on board..Truth be told my painting of any model I build is probably my weak point, I get a bit too impatient and do not give the neccesary time and thought to the finished model which is rather silly I suppose..I will take your suggestions and get some white primer onto the ship before doing anymore .Thank you meantime all help gratefully accepted
