Tamiya's P47 Thunderbolt on the bench

[docsudy]

Good evening fellow SMAs:
I am posting some images of the cockpit and radial engine of my Tamiya's P47 thunderbolt, 1/48 scale currently on the bench. I wired the engine to make it a little bit more real looking with 24 gauge wire. Was only able to fit one distributor wire per block. I weathered both the cockpit and the radial engine with black and dark brown panel line washes and dry brushing with flat aluminum.
Your comments and suggestions are welcome.
Thanks for looking.
