So I've had this pair of Heller Viggens in the works now for some time. I was just about ready to paint when I thought to double check the color of the wheel wells. Silver or gray? So I went to my references looking for a shot of a parked Viggen with its big wheel doors open, hopefully displaying the interior color. Turns out, they open and close almost exclusively to let the wheels in and out. Once that's done, they close up again which is their normal position on the ground. Glad I caught that one when I did. However the kit parts don't exactly click into place that way. (Nothing about this kit really clicks into place.) So significant delay closing up those big holes in two models, filling, smoothing and finally representing the doors with a layer or two of primer. Anyway, much closer to a paint job now.
