The already painted interiors of the wing pods have to be masked off from the white, then later black paint.
I found a good size is 1 1/8" long pieces. It takes two overlapping pieces to cover the open ends.
I wouldn't go much larger than this. You want the overlap to be small to get good coverage of the black later on.
Here is the model after the white undercoats.
The yellow plastic nose cone shows through the white paint. It wont matter, that upper section will be yellow anyway.
Even after CWF and filler/primer, these square tubes end up a bit rougher than a standard round tube.
Don't expect the square tubes to finish perfectly smooth.
Sand between white coats before the finish colors.
