Hornethopter - bits and pieces

So, keeping the wings off 'till the last, here's the body based in Grey Primer. Talking of bases, i came across this one from a long-gone project that handily has a metal wire on it. So i'll be using that then. And finally, how do i go about picking out the lovely detail on the cockpit dials and eye detail? Decided best way was to spray them in Black Primer and, when dry, gently rub with superfine sandpaper to wear the paint off the raised areas and leaving the black in the inlaid bits. Seems to have worked ok.
