The forward gun sponsons are painted up and ready to install. This won't happen for a bit yet as they (and many other detail bits) will make extensive handling of the model more complicated. They'll be added after the superstructure is complete. I'm currently sorting out lettering details before adding the lower wing assemblies.
Here are the roughed in searchlights. I'm adding some stress reducers for the wires as the lights will be adjustable in most directions until their final positioning. I need to weather the gaskets nearest the light housing to remove the shine and touch up some glue stains around the base of the sleeves. You can also see the power coupling for the off-board power supply. This will get a servitor carrying the power wire as part of the display base.
