chris

Thanks Chris, I find on such a large area, gloss covers better than the Matt white ( It could be just how I spray paint ) then when decals and everything else is done I’ll coat it all in a Matt varnish.

Cheers Chris.
The Tamiya tape is just to keep the bay doors closed. Also the first stage boosters aren’t fitted yet. Still thinking about adding more detail on them.
