You can see a picture of the pilot seat and the cabin.  The engine was completed with Revell enamels and pigments.  All the markings and the number was painted after the masking step.  Propeller and bend pipes were painted with Testors Wood after washed by Burnt Sienna Oil Colours.  

The plane was painted overall with Revell 90,and the Academy's kit is very good to build.
