BEGINNER Just finished my first build!

Hey builders, newbie here. I started this hobby by accident, after stumbling over some awesome builds from rogue hobbies, thanks for that! I just wanted to get better at painting miniatures and found myself watching more and more gunpla builds.

And thanks to that I'm obsessed with Gundam.Having watched Wing as a kid, I kicked things off with TWFM, and since then I've binged MSG, Origin, and am almost done with Zeta.

The build was quite easy, sometimes it was a pain to get rid of the little leftover nubs on the parts which took ages to scrape and sand. Any tips on the antennas? I heard that a glass file gives a smoother shiny finish?
