Thanks for the orders guys!
The detail came out great... I think you guys will like them!
I'm also going to be putting up a step-by-step on putting it together too, since it does have some fiddly bits.
Especially the pistons, I've discovered filing a little off the bottom peg makes it an easier fit.

Thanks guys!
I primed it, painted it the grey color. Then I heavily inked it. Once that dried I drybrushed (more heavily on the flat surfaces).
After that I painted on the "writing" with a bit of white paint and painted on the warning stripes.
Pretty straightforward actually. The little warning stripes really made it pop!

The pods I ordered for me and Matt have arrived here in the UK today. That's six days from order to delivery!
And they look amazing!
Matt, I'll send yours on tomorrow.
