First model ever
This is the first model that I have ever built. Please give any and all advise. I do have one question for the people that put multiple coats of paint on their car. What do you do to get the window to fit right. When it came to put the windows in they just did not want to go becasue of the multiple coat of paint.

Your model is great!!! As for the paint ?, Use thin coats until you get the coverage you need, don't overdo it.

test fit the windows before painting. If it seems a little snug, or has a tiny bit of space, sand it down, this way, the thickness of the paint doesnt affect it.
