One advice I would give is to give a wash to your engine, mix 1/4 metallic shade (like bronze or dark metallic) or black paint with 3/4 water and apply it like if washing with a big brush without trying to cover surfaces, that will make details more visible.
it's a smal tip that can be simple to do and substantly change the look of parts.
Thanks. That's a great tip btw and I might try it out but what about the the decals? I've already put them on the engine cover, battery, etc.
