Tapered head countersunk screws wouldn't be so noticeable and perhaps some you could putty over to hide them altogether.

Looking pretty good just the same.

and if you do not like the screw heads ,you could weld the seams or solder them, or even epoxy them and then take the screws out and putty the holes closed
but i like the way it looks ,and it will be the only one like it
you do not have to make yours look like everyone elses or make it to please others
unless you are building it for sale

You could just order a ton of the scale screws... That would probably be a major undertaking but would really look killer on them both. Almost like armor had been bolted onto it or something. Ether way they look good and if your happy with them that's all that matters. Keep the updates rolling in.
