Well after the clamping and moving it while it was gluing, the weapons bay door isn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be.

Don’t we all...don’t we all.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

I have the Encore boxing of this kit so I'm definitely taking notes on your build. Looking pretty good so far

I like the look of the light plastic showing through the black primer. I wonder if this could lead to some new form of pre-shading/black basing?

looking great Medic - your re-scribing shows up really well in that black primer. Nicely done!

Medic, it actually doesn't look that bad. You did an amazing job getting that smoothed out. This is coming along very well.
