    Easy for you Aussies to say, but in Europe we do not have that much head room ...

     
    Nice solution to a "tiny" problem. So if you take off the masts anyway, you are finished now ?

    So just the cockpit is a flight simulator?  Works for me.  I did a number of manuals back in the day for real simulators that weren't much more than that.  But did some with full blown graphics and hydraulics to give a sense of movement.

    Fortunately I'm colour blind, so you can paint it any which way you want

    You give me to much credit Lou, thank you
     
    Hello Assat, thank you for your praise. It is all Eduard. They have "Brassin" kits which you can use to enhance your - mostly -  airplane kits, and these are full of detail. A combination of resin, plastic, and PE (both metal and brass).
    Have a look at their BRASSIN kits
     
    As for tutorials, I am still learning, but this bloke does make nice tutorials PLASMO

    Thanks, Carl ! Yes I think it is called Ghost Gray 
     
    Did not mask windows. Tried to but could get it to work for me.  I coated them with Pledge acrylic floor wax first to protect them as best I can. Even diluting the Model Master enamel did not go too well, kept clogging the pipette so I could not get an accurate measure. Ended up free handing it with the sort of diluted enamel.
     
    I definitely do not like Testors Model Master paints.   I wanted to try Mr Color but the source I found had a large selection of colors to choose from, unlike my other two sources, but the colors I wanted were all on backorder with no estimated delivery date so I had to settle with the Testors I already had on hand.

    Since I have little time, I left my SMS Seydlitz in her mothballs and picked up this little build.

    The only thing I can say: "it is small!!!" and it is almost finished before you start it
     
    Resin and PE ready for painting

     
    Base coat "Black base" with chrome - both AK extreme metal colours - enamels

     
    Base colour is RLM 66 some details filled in with colours, and metal PE which has been prepainted - Vallejo acrylics - added a bit of wear and tear

     
    Getting the PE, resin, and plastic fitted took the better part of an eveing, painting took in all about 1.5 - 2 hours. Quite a fun model to build despite it's size, lot's of detail on the resin parts too
     
    Cheers
