I recommend with all wood kits, that you do not paint them, but stain all the wood the colors you desire prior to assembly. In other words do not apply paint with a brush, just put a little thinned paint on a rag and wipe it on the parts or mix up some thinned NON-Water based paints and apply with a brush, then let them dry. If yu want them darker just repeat the wipe down process and proceed with assembly. It will look much better that way.
I would also recommend you assemble these kits with Aleene's Tacky glue, which is a white glue which holds quite well, for longer than I have been using it. The great part is, if a part slips while drying, not that anyone ever misaligns anything during assembly, all you need to do is apply a swab or brush full of Denatured Alochol to the joint and wait a minute or two, then wiggle the joint and it will come apart with out damaging the wood, and the alochol will not warp the wood like water does. That way you have a second chance to get it correct. If you leave the original glue in it gets harder, it you scrape or wipe the glue off and use new glue and goog up agiain, you get another shot at it. Sometimes that works when you need it the most.
I do combine shipping for more than one purchase. If you have any questions please ask away. Thanks for looking.
