After filling and undercoating I can still see the sink marks.
I will try some more sanding and filling.
Keep Calm and carry On.

I am still battling with the roof, meanwhile, some parts have been undercoated and painted.

The sink marks are right down the length of the roof, still trying to disguise them.

If you were a lazy modeller like me -- you could do it in a scrapyard or museum and show age and wear on it. That would sort out the problem of the sink marks, a good coat of rust covers lots of problems.

Well, almost there, still a few bits to do.
I can honestly say that I did not enjoy the build, bad fit and so on.
