Help with my tools and difficulty of new model

Help with my tools and difficulty of new model

I just finished my first ME the emperor penguin and have a piececool Sagrada Família coming. I’m wondering if this jump in difficulty is too large. I’m considering getting another building like the piececool notre dame or a different piececool building. I struggled to push the tabs against a surface with my toolset and ended up using my finger nail which didn’t always work since my finger often couldn’t fit. I just bought the piececool tools and a generic amazon kit. If anyone has some recommendations on some tools I’m missing to make the other ones easier it would help me a ton. I’m finding the pliers and even the tweezers don’t fit all the time. I also just didn’t find my tweezers too useful. I did use the biggest cylinder thing for a bit of shaping along with my fingers. I also struggled to see so any light or magnifying glass recommendations would help. Again any and all help is appreciated with this.

ME Emperor Penguin

Took two days and is the first build I’ve finished my past ones were years ago and I gave up. A few parts did stab me but overall I think I’m okay with how it turned out but I think the back is a little rough/crooked. I have a piececool Sagrada Família coming so hopefully not too much of a difficulty jump.

Race Day shoes for a 5k

Looking to get some carbon serious race day shoes they would mostly be for cross country courses and I have cross country spikes but majority of our courses have both gravel and road sections so we can’t due to the road. Wanted to know if anyone had some input since I’ve been looking at the Vaporfly 4s the alpha fly 3s and the puma offerings as well. I’m unsure if the on cloud spray shoes are any good as well.
