109 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Hi, two weeks ago I started my first ZM kit. I went for the Raiden, a type I have never build so far. I just dry fitted all the sub-assemblies into the fuselage and all have a perfect fit. 10/10 points I attach a first snap shot ... Have a nice sunday!

109 Posted May 3, 2015 Author Share Posted May 3, 2015 (edited) Hi Thomas! Instrument panel :I used the clear part. I sanded the backside to get some grip for the decals. I cut the decals as necessary and glued them in place using Gunze SETTER. Painted backside flat black. Painted the instrument glazing with PVA lacquer using a tooth stick. Airbrushed interior green. Watered the PVA and cleaned the instruments with a wooden chisel. I was a little unsure but it worked out well. What is on your workbench? Bye!
