Shain,

I just built one for Burn, Baby, Burn. Great detail and lots of fragile parts .... take your time. Getting the hull sides to fit together was my biggest challenge. I also airbrushed the interior sides before assembly since it would be almost impossible to do it after assembly.Have fun.

Yes, that is my Burn, Baby, Burn campaign entry as well. Thanks for the tips, especially the painting the inside first one, I'd hate to have to figure that out for myself :-)
Thanks
