Thank you I'm almost done with it. I really enjoyed upgrading the cockpit, but I discover that CA glue tend to show trougth the primer. I'll apply less the next wime I use metal wire for making hoses.

I should be posting photos of the final soon.

Did you add the rivet lines or is that the kit molding?

I added most them using a rivet tool. It's quite a game changer for me, but it demand a lot of pratice to maintain a staigth line. That or a better technique than mine..

I learned by following this video as a guide (well this channel alone pretty much convinced me to get back at model making.
