Stolly cab interior starts to get some paint.

Just a quick update on the Airfix Stolly build. I am now at the stage where I need to attach the cab to the base which means the inside needs painting. First off a bit of preparation. I am painting the seats and a few other parts separately and then attaching them to the cab base once painted which means I need a paint free gluing surface. Now I could just paint the entire cab base and then scrape paint away but to save some possibility of damage to the paintwork I have used thin strips of masking tape to cover the required areas. Once painting is finished I should be able to remove them and have plain unpainted plastic ready for glue! That is the theory anyway!

Painting requires a primer and black is my go to choice as if I miss any parts with the top coat the black should at least act as a shading and hide my errors! So the primer has been applied. Left overnight it should be ready for a top coat tomorrow.
