Looks fantastic! I somehow missed your original post. I’ve gone thru it today, and it looks like a nicely done kit.

One thing I have done for white models is to use Rustoleum Semi-Gloss White. It has enough gloss that decals lay down smoothly. Gloss white can be tricky. But when it works, it looks amazing. (I have used Tamiya white for smaller models, but it is expensive!) I have had good luck with Rustoleum Gloss White overall, but have had a can or two spit globs of paint. I took them back and got replacements, and had no issues with the new can.
