Drilled the cooling vents and thinned the connecting parts of front wing.

Update some progress 

Almost all the panel lines are too thick so I filled them in and re-scribed everything, especially since the fuel cap was misaligned.

As with the Halo, I glued it in place first, filled the gaps, and then applied gray primer at the end to check the surface.

I used super glue mixed with regular gray putty to fill the panel lines. It’s also my first time building a kit from this manufacturer — it’s a Yokohama Hobby Forum limited edition, and it’s basically similar to Studio27's kit...

Wow, nice work so far.  The super glue and putty trick is interesting,  Going to have to try that.   Seeing the body in primer like that sure looks like something out of Star Wars.  I'm looking forward to your progress.

Great detail work. I don't have the patience for this level but it definitely makes a difference in your last shot.

I like the duplo workstand too!

Thank you for your appreciation.

I’m working on the other red parts as well. The rear wing also needs to be glued and the gaps filled first, but it’s quite tricky to get the alignment and symmetry right.
