Baron buddy there are only perhaps 20 pieces for the cockpit which I sat down and pre painted first along with the interior sidewalls. I think I spent all of two hours AB the green then moving on to pre shading with a Prismacolor marker. Tooth picked buttons and switches were virtually no time at all. Seven pieces make up the fuselage and wings. The seams along the belly and spine  were negligible so all they needed were a light sanding and a touch of Surfacer to help make smooth. That was it. Plus being 48 scale  it's all of 7.5" long without the prop and spinner.

Once I fix those joins at the fuselage (filled, sanded, re-scribed) I'm priming. But that most likely won't be until at least next Friday. OK, maybe a little Sunday morning. ;D
