There's quite a few parts around the sides of the hull and flight deck that make you go "WTF???" :headslap: :headbang:

I read through to catch up, Mike. Trumpeter does make some real bonehead design choices, whatever the subject, but you got this one handled. Are you using Stynylrez Primer here?

Yep! That's the overall grey that you see on it now. The flight deck was primed with Stynylrez black. I just spent 10 minutes just trying to attach a catwalk of all things.

Got most of the starboard side done and now I'm working on the port side.
