Ok, figured I would post some progress pictures.
I took my Dremel to the transmission suspension area in an effort to make it more realistic.

Opened up the front wing, and separated the two rear wing elements.

Opened up the cooling vents next to the cockpit.

We may well be a tough crowd, but I am enjoying watching the progress regardless :o)

Looks pretty good to me so far ;) Paint and decal work looks perfect. What type of clear do you plan to use? |

I have had good success with Mr.Super Clear Gloss U.V cut, decanted and sprayed through my airbrush.

You might want to try one of the two part urethane products. I came across a hobby paint that had very nice test results [I have a sample in my shop]. Pretty close to the automotive products I use on my models. I can get you the info tomorrow when I am back in the shop. Best thing about two part is they enhance the color in a good way. |

I have heard good things about Gravity Colors. I am waiting on them to get an Arrows A23 orange in stock. I am building a Studio 27 kit of the 2002 beauty, and I want the correct color. I will get some of their 2 part clear. I am trying to get this one finished for a local contest, so I am going to use my tried and true method.
Thank you for the heads up on the Gravity Clear. |

OK, clear is sprayed. I still need to spray a flat/dull coat on the CF that is on the rear of the car.

| The photos are a little crude so it is hard to judge. Do you wet sand and polish the clear to bring it down to scale? |

Yes Pete the pictures are crude. I am taking them on the fly with my iphone. I will break out my good camera, and lighting when I get it complete.
I will let this cure for a week, and then knock it down with some micromesh, and polish. |

I assembled the brakes tonight, knocked down some of the gloss to try and make it appear more scale. I painted some of the front and rear wing pieces.
