Thanks Medic - I did wonder about that. That's a really interesting tip that I'll have to investigate as I tend to struggle with the detail interior painting.

I use Sharpie paint pens on a lot of detail things like cockpits and such.

Ah cool - I think I might try that!

Great looking interior!

Thanks guys. More updates.

Some weight in the nose. I'm closing the bomb bay doors so I can add some there if needed (which I'm sure it will).

That's a fair amount of detail there Medic! I always dislike closing the fuselage up on detail like this but it's a necessary evil. Lookin' good so far buddy.
