The detailing process is my favorite step in building a plastic model airplane. This is the time when you will add all those little details that will make your model airplane stand out and look realistic.
Be careful not to overdo it, stay as close as possible to the way the plane looks in real life. Use pictures of the real airplane as a reference.
Study the pictures very carefully. Look at the oil marks, stains, damage, rust and the effect of weather and time on the airplane. Look at the area around the engine, vents, the leading edge of the wings, the surrounding area around the machine guns, the edges and tips of the propeller(s), and the effect of weight on the rubber tires.
You never know, if you get really good at this, some day, you may end up working at an airplane museum.
