I love this kit. I've built two and have another on the shelf. May I make a suggestion? You may want to ignore it at this point but here goes: Curiously, DML made one rear stowage box (N3) too deep and too tall. It should have 4-mm cut off from its rear portion and 1-mm from its bottom. This is a simple correction to an obvious oversight.
YOu've put down a base coat -- your option at this point.
