Thank you so much Mike. That is all really helpful for me (a total noob). I really appreciate the pointers! I got Medium Sea Gray (RAF) for the floor, Light gun metal for the walls, gun metal for the door, and Camel Yellow for the Gantries. I also got a Weathering Master for the details (Orange Rust, Gun Metal, Silver). I think these colors should work out for me. I will be really happy though if mine turns out 1/2 as cool as yours! I will post my finished kit here (whenever that will be?).
Do you recommend that I wash the parts with Comet or Soap and Water before applying the primer layer?
