Build of the "head" - beside dealing with the seams, I drilled a hole at the end of the gun, and added some plastic sheet to cover the holes around the gun. I should have done the same on the legs' space armour too, I realise the need of doing so a bit too late.
Masked the space armour parts and applied a thin layer of Tamiya enamel black on to the side exhausts on the armour parts. There are a bit of round shape but I masked them in shape angle - after the spray, just use Tamiya X-20 to clean up the corners. Way easier than mask all the round corners.
Painted the gun under fuselage with Modo MX-02, and glued all parts together except the front part of fuselage and the "head".
Continue the decals work, and this time I used some left over decals from previous projects (non Macross), also added some pre-colored PE parts to the cockpit.
Applied a wash with 502 black + white oil on the bottom of fuselage, wings and 'legs", also try using white (light grey) Mr Weathering liquid to highlight the shape of the space armour, seems the outcome is acceptable.
