Painting

After the dry-fit, I needed to disassemble the modules in order to paint them.
It's pretty slow, and I'm strongly regretting using a brush. Now I have somewhat annoying brushstrokes on the desk; but it's unlikely that the desk will be often clean enough to 'appreciate' it. 



This is the air-in module. It's attached to the top corner of the darkroom so that three walls come up against it and provide a light-tight seal. The panel things are so that air can get through, but light cant. It's currently smothered in undercoat.

This is at the base of the drying cabinet, taken from what will become the inside. There's going to be an air filter of the size of the box on the other side, and the holes were drilled to let this filtered air through; sucked up by the air-out module.

Poirot and the mystery of the brushstroked desk? 

Here, we have the first door attached and working! It was so easy, simply lining up the hinge and screwing it in while on the floor.
