We'll start with the parts layout.
For such a small kit, there are a LOT of parts

Before starting actual construction, I opted to give the interior of the cockpit parts a black wash for detail

Gave the pilot figure a drybrush of silver

Cockpit assembly was very straightforward

Main hull was assembled before I knew it.
Gave the assembly a light black wash and wiped off the excess

The solar panels were assembled by placing the frames on, followed by the exterior frames.
Those were also given a black wash when done.
