    I should have the MicroMark kit by THursday. Then a couple of days to figure out how to use it and get set up. I'll take photos of the process and results.

    IN the meantime, I've started painting cockpit parts. Got the primer (Mr Surfacer 1500 Black) and base colors down today. I mixed a custom batch of interior green to match the Quinta details which is a greener shade than the AK Real Colors version I had thought of using. I think it is a more accurate color anyway than the AK. I applied it and lightened versions over the black primer, trying to leave a bit of black showing through. Once I get the smaller details painted, I can gloss it and apply a wash and highlights.

    I have been procrastinating on the other model projects and really should get some work done on them as well. 🙂

    Tomorrow's boating day, so no modeling, except perhaps in the evening.
