The one major "flaw", was on the crew car roof. The opening where the original cupola ( this was a caboose ) went, was filled using the original cupola roof, and I didn't get that piece in at the right height. I cut and added two pieces of 0.015" styrene sheet, one on each side, and then puttied the edges.
I use Squadron white putty, and dip the applicator in Testor's liquid plastic cement. It acts as a thinner for the putty, and gets it to flow into smaller cracks and spaces, to make a smoother "fill".
Now I have to wait for the putty to dry thoroughly before sanding and priming.

We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
