Thanks, slingshot.  Just be weary around the front end, from the top turret, forward.  There's not a lot of room to get sanding sticks in there and there's a lot of detail that is easily obliterated.

I ended up not sanding the front seam after I almost erased one of the top observation windows.  Maybe with better planning and better tools, it would be possible, but not with what I had on hand.

Thanks for the heads-up!  Sometimes when I'm not feeling overly lazy, I will put some tape over detail and then carefully sand up to the tape, it helps protectthe detail somewhat.  It would probably saved me more time if I remembered to do it more often!
