Finished!. That was my second kit I have ever created. I made few mistakes: I should have used mirror finished from Hasegawa under the front lights.
Before Assembly
Base color will be orange(Tamiya X-6). Interior is painted by mix Tamiya XF-1(2 parts)XF-53(1 part)
Body is sanded, from 600 grit paper to 8000 and wait for priming. I'm gonna use 1500 pink Surfacer from Mr. Hobby.
Heavy weathering

Nice paintjob for a second model.
I would skip the black in the horizontal line halfway the door, and only apply it in panellines.

Which engraving blade should I use? I bought Gt65 0,3mm and Gt65 0,15mm. Does it matter?

That's personal preference. Mine would be the 0,15. The thicker lines can look like trenches imo.
