Richard a small tip to deal with those lower seams,cut a small piece of flat plastikard so that it fits between the various bits and pieces sticking up,load the joint with green squadron putty and drag the piece of flat card between in one sweep as smooth as you can get,allow to dry and make a special sanding block from a piece of balsawood or similar with some wet and dry mounted to it,just keep working on the joint until it is fine,the fault lies with some shrinkage in the mouldings at that point,the company are aware of the problem,do your best and you will then know in your mind that you have done what you can within your skillful capabilities.
It really is a nice model and you are doing it justice,well done.
