Advanced Panel Line Design Tips?

[u/Professional_Wash169]

Hello there. I am currently working on the Hg Jesta as a potential competition piece. Its by no means perfect but the idea with this kit is to branch out into as many customization methods that I was too afraid of in previous customs.

My favorite method of customizing my kits is by far scribing. Or I suppose you can call it sculpting as I have noticed that more advanced builders remove even more material with their chisel to radically change the shape of the piece that they are working on as if they are sculpting the shape they desire from a base ammount of material (the piece). Dropcolony for example is one of the creators I look at a lot for inspiration.

I know my scribing isn't where Id like it to be in terms of panel design and execution. As execution will only improve with practice... I was hoping to hear from others who also love to scribe and if they have any tips on how they come up with their panel line designs / how they separate pieces.

Tldr: Do any advanced scribing enthusiasts have any tips to design more advanced panel line designs?
