1. Carefully lever off the top from bottom and store the bottom and dials away somewhere safe while you work on the top.
2. Undercoat in Black
3. Mask off the bottom half and spray the top in Luftwaffe Camouflage Green
4. Mask a line off for the pulse, spray out from there with Golden Olive
5. Mask off so only the bottom triangle is visible, spray with Evil Sunz Scarlet then fade in Wild Rider Red

8. Wash silver with Nuln Oil or Nuln Oil Gloss as preferred.
9. Paint the symbols with Liberator Gold
10. Wash the gold with Reikland Fleshshade or Reikland Fleshshade Gloss
