Wow, just WOW. Your work here is simply awesome. It looks like you are showing us a kit part and a resin part, but it's all you. Nice work as it really makes a HUGE difference in your kit.
With regard to the Zvezda kits, they are filled with a minutia of small bits and detail that most kits don't offer and this increases the complexity of the build by a huge amount. If you don't mind moving very slowly with the kit then it won't fight you. If you want to get things to progress a bit more rapidly then you may find the kit frustrating and it will fight you. I think the only reason that my 109 has been a pleasure to build is how much time and how slowly I've moved with it. I easily have 100 hours is it so far, about 4 times what I spent to this point on other kits. I believe they are very high quality and are well made and fit is great but they just don't lend themselves to being pushed in assembly. Hope this helps.
Keep up the awesome work.
