I was basing the work on some photos I found on the Cessna website.
This one in particular seemed to show raised rivets on the wing:

Perhaps what I'm seeing there isn't actually protruding rivets at all.

Is there any height change there at all, or are the surfaces completely smooth?

I could obviously tone down the effect significantly to make them
protrude less if
that is more realistic.

BTW - we're modeling a P model, if that makes any difference.
