This is looking great Jed! The thinner bed sides did help. There's a lot of detail there considering how small, at least to me, that it looks like. I doubt I could do it.

OK, that blew my mind when I saw it in primer again, I said " I coulda sworn it was blue already"
Was there a problem with the paint, looked fine from here?
I like the roof, pardon my stupidity, is green stuff squadron putty?
Keep jamming away, you may be the first one done.

It looks a lot better Jed. The changes helped. You're almost to the finish line.

Thanks guys, Jim I think the two types of putty are very similar,, normally I have used milliput but got some green stuff with some sculpting tools so thought I'd give it a go. As I'd made some alterations which needed priming I decided to do the whole thing before repainting in a lighter blue. Thanks for checking it out

The lighter blue makes sense since you (I knew you would) are gonna put a darker wash over it.
The stuff in the bed is pretty cool also.
Keep up the good work and posts.
Jim
