>it's time to goFuck it, I consider it finish. I guess I'll re-purpose some of the left out accessories for other builds as I want to build other things. I'm not sure if I'll bother with final pics as it's a hassle to set up tho
>>7412057Hand-brushing tamiya acrylics/lacquers is a bit hard specially for big surfaces so better switch to vallejo acrylics (or similar) as they don't lift off while doing layers and are more pleasing to work with in general for that kind of work. Masking the canopy with tape and/or liquid mask will give sharper edges. Switch to oils (more flexible) or enamels for washes better. You left parts without paint (the wing cannons and wheels it seems). Exhausts aren't silver shinny for too long so better paint them dark rust and then with pigments do rust and smoke stains. Get some decal setting solutions so they wrap on the details.
What exactly you want to know or improve? it's a pretty vague question and the first 5 or so models should considered training wheels mode for building and painting techniques so I don't know what to recommend exactly for you
>>7412630There's a lot of models of that kind of stuff desu, sure some things might only exist in resin or by custom order (or scratch build it yourself if you reaaally want it) as probably not even the company that made irl it cares about it but there are others that make me wonder how they could justify the mold inversion.
Here you can get a sample:

And if you wanna go full hipster and do a meta project, bandai or aoshima has an injection mold machine scale model and some other machinery like CNC and stuff like that too.
