It is not that difficult to do. On this particular model the plastic is gray colored. I just paint the
underside surfaces with a very light coat of HUMBROL 34 (Matt White). Then I just high light the
rib detail with a dark color (usually brown). Once that is done then I paint the under surfaces
with HUMBROL 74 (CDL) utilizing thin coats to let the rib detail bleed through.
