Thank you very much. Still a lot to learn though 😉. Any suggestions welcome, especially about the weathering that I wish to make more realistic but where I had some difficulties to find good sources...
By the way, has anyone had experience with decals which would not slide off their support even after letting them in the water for some time and with bits which would break off? Is that because the decals got bad or it's just Italeri/Tamiya decals?

Very nicely done indeed. Regarding the decals: considering they are breaking off, that points to an age problem (although this kit is not very old). This has happened to me with ESCI decals that were 30some years old. You can overspray the decal sheet with a clear to restore it (in that case you will need to cut around each decal as now you have a continuous layer of clear). As far as them not coming off, soak them longer and use warm water. Cheers!

Thank you for the tip. I will try that next time. Indeed, the kit is not very old but the box sides were sun faded so it was not properly stored maybe.
