Ok my next project is an ebay brought drop pod it came assembled and base coated which saved me some time, the down side is the interior was base coated black and had some metallic paint on it to (ideas to save the interior please) and the out side I've done but still not finished.

Try painting an map or tactical layout on the ball, some silver on the grates to show wear, and yellow/black hazard stripes on the inside edges of the ramps. The drop pod looks good with clean sharp line. Nice Dev in the backround.

On the fins, you might try using a dark metallic colour on the insets.

The inside has now had an all over coat of bolt gun metal and the central dome painted green.

Next job add telemetry data to the dome add some colours to the buttons on the control panels and wash the interior with black ink to add shading
