Looking through later in the movie there is a scene towards the end where Ripley is tooling up to go rescue Newt which takes place inside the APC bay of the second dropship. It definitely shows green walls so it must be the lighting in that previous screencap, so I'll leave it as it. There are some interesting shots there that give more detail, but I'm not sure I'm going to do anymore detailing in there. It did remind me about the ladder as well however. That will be retraceted in my diorama as the APC will have just been deployed.
Lots of small bit done last night: painting the pilots faces and helmets, fixing the silver reflectors to the headlights, preparing the missiles for painting, lining the inside of the forward missile pods with textured plastic card to give it more texture, another coat of mr surfacer on the canopy, fixing the headlights into the forward body, drilling a hole through the angled joint of the missile pod to add a short bit of brass tube to give the joint strength. This tube has been cut to size and epoxied into position. Once its set I can use that to align a second hole and rod to secure the leg properly. Then it will be the same on the other leg.
No photos this time, just some writing... hope I haven't bored you
