Various subassembles primered with mr finishing surfacer 1500 primer . Wet sanded with Tamiya 1500 sanding sponge . For the metal i mixed a bottle of 50% Mr color super metallic super fine silver and 50% Tamiya LP-11 . Tail and underide of the back wing section was sprayed with Tamiy XF-54 Dark sea grey . FOD covers an d crew ladder sprayed with Tamiya tape . I decided to use the Armory Resin wheels on the build. They cleaned up pretty easy. I clipped tht nose strut axel off and drilled them out . Wheels will be attached with a metal pin in the end .

Spent a week getting the vertical and the tail wing painted. Sprayed first the Tamiya XF-54 Dark Sea Gray . Then I used a 0.5 mechanical pencil to draw the demarcation line for the camo . Free handed sprayed the Tamiya XF-811 RAF Dark Grren . On the trailing edge there is a small composite looking peice that was masked ioff and sprayed with a mix of Tamiya TAn and Tamiya Kakhi . Armory wheels was primed with Mr finishing surfacer 1500 .Wheel hubs sprayed with my metal mix and tired painted with mr colot tire black .
