1/4 Completely primed, filled with putty and sanded down. Took off way more primer than I thought. Reasons were extremely bad moulds and fitting as well as my failed rescribing attempt. Next up is the preshading and then of to painting!

1/7 It's done! Quite a few mistakes, but all in all I am happy. Chipping got out of control. Also the ground is not that bright IRL. I am happy with most of it, paint went on nicely, however I had some orange peel after the gloss coat.

Thanks Alec! It was a challenge indeed - it looks simple when you open the box, but the more you get into it, the more putty you use 🙂
