Get a a pre-cut canopy mask.

Use Mr. Hobby or Vallejo Model Air acrylics for paint. Tamiya makes excellent acrylics, but I think you have to mix the colors.

The best glue is a thin formula like Tamiya.

The only tools I use are simple files and tweezers.

I’d add some high grit sandpaper or sanding sticks just to smooth things out as you build.

Yes, the box says stuff like 167+168. Not used to this. Have ordered the glue anyway.
