some update progress:

Fixed the licence light

Cargo bay Etch primered

Fixed the RG leak

Load bay etch primed

Any one know or have an idea how to seal/weatherproof between the outer bulkhead and the loading bay?

Nice progress Louis. Does it leak into the "treasure chest" area ? Are you referring to the area where the cab "meets" the (upper) load deck area ?

Yes
