I don't like this kind of assembly fragmentation.... Unnecessary number of parts that can't be seen later anyway....

Actually ready for painting ... The door will be painted separately, with one side open, so it is not in place 🙂

Thank you, but on the other hand, in photos 10 and 11 you can see that I gave too much paint and some disappeared. I had to correct 🙂

Can I ask how you do this pre-shading or is it a trade secret 😉 ? From your other work I know that you are very skilled with an airbrush (eg the cammo scheme of your Arado 555 project). You could paint a model in black and white and it wouldl stilll look great. 😀 Hmmmm....maybe this is an idea for a future project 🤔

It's no secret 🙂 This shading is the old black&white technique. First the model is painted with black primer and then with white paint I try to paint the tonal transitions and also the streaks and splatters. This way we have a ready modulation of the base color. Provided that we manage not to paint over what we have done 🙂 I paint the base color very diluted (even 1/10) and after each layer I check whether it is enough or one more 🙂
