The cockpit details are nice too. See, with all of the stuff you do to make your planes look even more realistic, I'm really sure you can do cars.
The lines between the cooling fins are created by using a mix of Future acrylic floor finish and black acrylic paint. Since the floor coating is self leveling it flows down into the low spots and tints them darker. I use it like a wash for highlighting on everything.
