Some preparation before I paint the inside of the plane.
The propeller need to be thinned and have the tips rounded off. The kits come with quads propellers, but the plane in the film only had three on each. Despite having only three propellers, the angle of the two propellers that stick out of the plane is more at 90 degree angle, so I can only assume that in the film, the propellers either broke away from the shaft or they bent out of place. So to replicate this, I kept two of the propellers at 90 degree angle.
The cockpit has also been assembled.

The interior has now had it base coat of paint applied and is waiting for me to add some detailing with the paint.
