Thanks everyone for the positive feedback, I was hoping to have a pic of this cleared but I'm holding off for now as I have some work to clear in a few days and will do them all at once.
Klutz- never thought I'd see my hamster ship on this forum. Sold the video camera and my main star died years ago, no movie.
Cobra-I cant paint cars as I have no garage, but I have painted car hoods.
Willimo-I use a Paasche VL with the main body removed, just so it fits better in my hand. For flat surfaces, I cut out basic shapes in Frisket paper and use templates with random curves cut into them ( cigarette packs are perfect for this) If you break down the sections of the picture and do them one at a time, it's not really that hard. I sometimes use a small paint brush to pick out details too, which in this model I did alot.
Hope to have this clear coated as soon as possible!
