In part one of the draken build, we put together the cockpit and cut the flaperons off so we can position then in the power down position. we then get the fuselage together. 

In part Two, we take care of some small problems with the intake and the gun areas that need filling, sanding and re scribing. We also fit the flaperons in the powered down position.

In part three, we fit the flaperons, prime, and spray the metal area on the bottom using different metal colours.

In part four, we paint the whole aircraft, but it doesn’t go totally to plan and we have to re paint the top dark grey again with a light shade of grey. We also pic out some of the darker panels and fade the paint work all ready for decaling.

In the final part of the the Draken build, we decal and then give the whole mode a heavy weathering wash and add streaking to the underside with the dark Promodellers wash. We then add further weathering to the rest of the model and add all the remaining part to complete the model off ready for the reveal.
