Eggplane YF-19 - WIP 1

From one small kit to another
 
Mentioned in the Gustav post, I was itching to start a new kit. Got this kit early this year and I will once again try hand painting the smaller details of the kit. As for the larger parts, it will be fully painted.
 
Let's start this kit off with the artwork on the box:
 
Top of the box

 
Sides of the box
 
The next thing to show are the runners:
 
Runner A

Runner B

Runner C

Runner K & E 
 
Runner G & J

Waterslides

After confirming that all the parts and runners are present, they are then removed from the runners into their respective boxes. 
 
Pieces stored in their respective boxes
 
The first order of work is to determine all the pieces which requires to be spray painted off-white...

All parts prep for off-white painting work
  
 ...and Saga Green (which was used for the NG Zaku II).

All parts prep for Saga Green painting work

Some masking are required for the parts for Saga Green because it consist of 2 different colors: Saga Green and Neutral Grey. Masking out the part which will require Neutral Grey with the normal masking tape since it is in bare plastic.

After masking and spraying, parts were left out to dry.
