Very nice result Fabrice! I really like the presentation too; nice box, good looking base - good job!

I like what you did with the engraving on the clear part; might be a handy trick for me, I need to make sliding windows on a plain window, if you know what I mean... I guess you did put clear coat over the clear part??
And another thing; did you pre-shade the panel lines or does it just look that way because you cut them pretty deep?

Thank you for your comments

Dave, I did not put black paint in the engravings. The engravings are deep enough to create a natural shade. But it does not work with all color.

For windows, I made the etching with a metallic tip, serving me with a plastic template as a guide. The work is done by the outsides of the windows.

Great work. I did build the same model but had quiet some trouble to keep the color of the class parts inside. I did paint the inside of the glass part but it always came of just like a vinyl wrap. So what did you use as paint.

Thank's for your comment!
To paint the glass from inside, I used satin black Tamiya TS-29 bomb. But I pulled out the paint from his bomb and applied the paint to the airbrush.
