Looks like it is going to be a fantastic model. Let me take a seat 🙂

Welcome, Robert! It's progressing slowly. Panel lines are been filled/sanded/rescribed, wing surface levelled and smoothed, landing gear scratched, etc. Can't help digging my own grave with every project 😉 But yes, in my head it's going to be a fantastic model!

Thanks, Pierre, and welcome! I first draw the lines on the surface with a mechanical pencil, then use Rosie the riveter freehand trying to follow those lines. For longer lines I use tape as a guide. The trick for me is to inmobilize the model while using the riveter, I use lots of blu-tac for this. Additionally having a source of light in front of you allows the rivets to be easily seen, which also helps a lot! Just find the right angle under which the surface reflects the light and there they are!

Wow great detailing. The C-415 will definitely look great when it's finished. 👍👍👍

Thank you all! Scribing and riveting are slowly progressing, though I have less time for modelling now... I'll do my best not to loose momentum!
