Undercarts are the fiddly end of the stick, more so because you're afraid of also damaging that nice finish on the stick.
 
Installed the flaps, ailerons and elevators, then did all the worn paint on the wing walkways with silver. The pics of this aircraft show the paint very weathered, but the only place it's chipped off is here. Also did the panel lines with a sludge mix of Acryl Flat Black, Acryl Rust, and rubbing Alcohol. The Alcohol eats into the Future a bit so when you wipe it off a little of it stays grunging things up for the look I was going after. You can really see it on the bottom picture.

Almost there!
Landing gear on, dull coat sprayed, jet exhausts installed and canopy masks removed. Just a little touch up and a few more bits to add.
