Finally, I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel (not that of an oncoming train) on this project.
Two weeks ago, both sections of the model received their finish coats of gloss white spray, top surfaces only.
I am determined to go with a radically different color scheme from the usual all-white.
The intervening time has been spent brush-painting the undersides of the vehicles.
The booster gets a 1:4 mix of black and white to get a nice grey color, while the orbiter wing gets a black covering.
After this, some creative masking and painting of the nose cones are in order.
Finally, some silver trim on the ram jet tubes and other details will be applied.
Stay tuned...
