The frame has had the seams filed and sanded, and then a white coat of primer as this shows any marks that need attention really well. Once dried the frame will be sanded with micromesh until I am happy with it, then a coat of black primer and a gloss black top coat. Nemesis attached the following image(s):

The frame has now had its top coat, gloss coat to do, and I have started to fill the gaps in the figure, next will be a start on the engine. Nemesis attached the following image(s):

Well I have been going through my kits and found half a dozen that need finishing, this being one of them. I was not happy with the paint on the frame so I stripped it back and did it again. Very pleased with it this time round! Nemesis attached the following image(s):
