Hi Jmarc,
that looks very cool so far, I like the concept of the cut outs to see the interior. Very little point there, the reddish color is probably incorrect, they were more like ‘dark white’/eggshell inside with grey instruments. But certainly, the reddish makes it pop out better through the transparent parts.
In 1/48 that certainly is a beast of o model, but gives you the opportunity to really work out the details.
Really nice work so far, I’m in and following (even if I am an unreliable/unfrequent poster…)
Cheers

Great work!
Regarding the red occide, in you WIP it becomes clear which parts you painted red, got that wrong on the pics in here. The way you are doing it makes perfect sense!
