I added the Quickboost bulkhead with drums, PE seat belts and masked all inside windows as Tamiya supplied only the exterior mask.
The engine is very nice, but unfortunately little remains visible with the cowling closed.

The model was painted with the usual splinter camouflage and after, some areas were covered with Maskol using small pieces of sponge. Then several layer of white Gunze H11 for the winter camouflage.
After I peeled off the Maskol, another layer of white for blend everything.
 
My best.
