My try at building the 1/6 Scale Falcon Cockpit

Beautiful work so far ! As Sofa said, just spray a coat of satin (same brand should be fine in case of reaction with the previous coat). The more you do, the better the piping is getting!
 
Just seeing how it would look.:)

Great job for sure. As for the piping on the two sides of the cockpit, are you using guitar strings?
Thanks,

I made the piping by wrapping a wire around another wire. The guitar wire will not allow me to bend it into position I wanted.

Started to paint some of the lighting squares:

and making the handles for the top center overhead box:

Did some detail work on the interior of the front cockpit:

Added one of the over head box controllers. Still have to build the other one:
