In part one, we look at the kit and extras available. WE then start work on the Wolf pack resin cockpit set.

In part two, we work no the sub assembly’s weapons bays, wheel wells, intakes and engines. We install the cockpit and bring the two fuselage half’s together.

In part three, we finish of the intake and getting a great seamless fit. We then prime, pre shade and spray the camo finish to the raptor.

In part four, we put on that all important metallic finish to the Raptor. We then attach the Crossdelta nozzle set, decal and give the Raptor a full dark wash.
