jetboy Posted September 5, 2012 Author Share Posted September 5, 2012 Hi,started off with painting the base which is a representation of a section of the iss,as there are three different ways to display the finished model,i tried all ways,didnt really like any of them so,decided to drill some holes and mount it how i would like,so thats what ive done so far,base...... drilled hole in bottom of htv then in iss.. assembling pallet and payload painting outside htv painting payload bay all the main bits painted wait for paint to dry and assemble,though still got to figure out how im going to paint these solar panels yet..... we will see how it goes tommorrow......cheers Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
