The cockpit looks great Jeff! It can be sobering to view close-up photos of work that you thought was pretty darn good. I've been trying to reduce that difference between perception and reality. I've found that good magnification is a must and use magnification whenever I can. I even use my Magnivisor when shooting small areas with the airbrush. Another tip is to use a wash. A wash is an easy way to highlight detail and has the added benefit of helping to hide the shaky edges of hand painting.
