I saw online someone had used “ flesh “ color paint and it looked pretty good on a B-24. I tried it too and thought it looked about right.
It looks pretty good @lis. It is hard to tell on a monitor, I learned that with my decals. I now have a pantone book so I know how they will look when printed. I mixed Character Flesh (pink), Sand to get my mix. The thing to remember is it was a sand color that faded to pink tones under the blistering sun. With variations of shading yours should look good too.
I agree with our friend's @luftwaffe- birdman comments, my friend @lis.

Good morning my Friends! Yesterday night I refresh old Minicraft decals by liquid decal film an used cutted piece of star on waist window. I think it looks pritty good as 30 yo decals. Minicraft has good idea to divide stars on two pieces and I have idea to use waist two pieces star on kit.

The decals do still look good indeed, Bernard @lis
@kahu @luftwaffe-birdman @fiveten @johnb I decided to use resin engines. They fits good.

Those are some really nice looking resin engines @lis. They will look great in the nacelles. Even though you only see the front, I think it makes a big difference.
Very nice engines indeed, Bernard @lis
Engines look excellent, my friend @lis!
Time for close fuselage.
Waist gunner was added to fuselage.

The waist gunner looks very good, Bernard @lis Good progress on the interior as well.

I used 80 gr of lead in nose. At this build all in nose because I have resin engines that fill all surface in engine gondolas.
Excellent figure looks and great progress, my friend @lis!
Looks really good, Bernard @lis 80gr should be sufficient to keep the nose down.
I added some suspenders to keep blanking turret plate in position.
