    Ohhhh and I forgot to post fully painted set: And I forgot to mention how I did visor. I got cheap transparent plastic sheet, cut them together and put tinted foil for car windows on it. I never do this again! It was hell! I used hot glue but that didn't hold parts on position. And the...

    Really really interesting point! I think I do it that way. It saves time. 12 hours between every layer is a long time (thats what my friend said) and I don't have enough space to paint all parts together.
