Thank you both for the compliments.
@Thokamous: You might still be able to find DVDs of both seasons of BRTC25 on amazon.com. @Neptune: raising or recessing panels is the easiest way to add detail to texture and give the model a more "realistic" look and feel. Good luck with your Viper.

Aft (engine) section, belly, and wings
Here is an update on my progress. As you can see, I am still adding even more detail to the model by enhancing the texture and either raising, recessing (or both), and isolating some feature. Here are the photos below:
Here I raised most of the panels and isolated some of the texture by cutting out the inner areas that are open. Close-up of the detail back panel of aft section Back panel finished back panel attached. Engine exhausts attached. under-belly section attached and ready for landing gear. Wings attached. I am working on the landing gear now.

Finally finished!!!
I have finally finished my detailed TF. As you can see, I did make the canopy hinged, and yes, I know that it is not canon. That is the joy of fan based builds, you can do what ever you want.
Here are the photos for your viewing pleasure. Here I attached the landing gear. This is the back part of the canopy. This is the inside of the canopy with a "CLOCK" that I detailed out. As you can see, I recessed the dial and raised the buttons. Canopy is attached. I raised some of the textured detail on the canopy. Here are close-up shots showing the raised detail. This is showing that the canopy is hinged. I used the tape style hing that I featured in my thread on making Functioning Cockpit Canopies for the Buck Rogers Thunder Fighter. Here is the thread: http://www.papermodelers.com/forum/tutorials/18906-functioning-cockpit-canopies-buck-rogers-thunder-fighter.html

congrats! so far a great work and I love how you raised those surface details. I'm very ignorant in this field... did all those different fighters appear in the show? some of them are beautiful, I like the one in the upper left corner of the pic

Only three variants were ever in the original series, the rest are all fan based. The forward swept wing versions, were of my design. I scratch built the larger FSW-TF (the one in the center), then I designe the others as a kit with the help of another desinger that designed the rest of the kit. BTW, all of these kits can be found here: Buck Rogers Thunderfighter - Modellbaubogen
