You're right, it is a tough body to paint. Pro-Line did a great job on the mold but there's only a limited amount of detail possible with this type of vaccu-forming. I guesstimate this is 1:7 scale or so, and there's a lot of blobby parts of the mold that are hard to tell apart.I've always thought that body is particularly difficult to paint from the inside like that. How are you masking it? Or are you painting with a brush?
