Last time I used brass pins on valve gear was when building my OO gauge Dock Tank. They work, but I was never happy with the look of them. The ends looked like pins rather than rivets.
This time I solved that - before use each pin has its head dressed with a few strokes of a file to give a flat top. Now each pivot point presents a flat disk to the viewer. It's possible still a bit big but looks a whole lot better for very little effort.
