I'm not going to light it actually...
It will need a too deep hole from the front to the rear.

Time for a new WIP:

Both engine bay lighted up (just for fun pic, nothing glued yet, excepted LEDs): ;D

I changed my mind about how I was going to close the LED area, I finaly cut parts from 0.5mm plastic sheet to close it:

 

[Igard]

Nice lighting management there. Can't wait to see this put together.

[Dark Kyp]

Time for a new work in progress!

I tried 3 differents way to paint this gorgeous one.
First one: covering... It tooks too long so I dicieded not to go this way.

Painting for preshading: At that scale the results were to rude, the details were not as good as I would.

During those preshading tests... poop happens

Drybrushing: drybrushing offers quick painting and good results. I decided to go this way!

Now I have to go fast, 6 days to go! ;D
