Looking at the earlier dry fit of the wing layers -
There is no way you'd get a good paint cover between the wings!
JeffyJeep did a great build of this kit on TRF.
He used a brown marker to get a light color coat between the layers.
The instructions say to paint it an overall brown. Brown on a rocket? How boring.
I did find a better brown for the model.
I had great results in the past with Rust-oleum Metallic paint in the past.
A metallic paint would work well on this one.
This is Rusto Metallic Vintage Copper, #248637.
It's not a full gloss paint, but looks more like a semi-gloss. I hope the water slide decals will be okay on the semi gloss surface.
I decided to lightly spray paint the interior surfaces before gluing it all together.
There will be some glue area sanding and scraping during final glue assembly.
Here the inside surfaces are facing up on a spray board.
