This is a "mask the solar panels" projet. The fit is ok. You must mask and paint the panels before assembly them! I choose to paint the frame first and mask the frame on order to paint in black the solar panels. I choose to paint the blue star fighter scheme. My next release, the Finemolds Tie Fighter, will be paint with the white color scheme.

Painting: - Entirely hand painting Paints: - Acrylic Delta Ceramcoat
