Here is my next build another marlboro livery i just love the look off the red and white colours i will be using zero paint again what else is there that is as good as these paints they are great and i will be using crazy modelers decals for this and i also have some c/f various sizes





had a few hours free today so did some more work on this one i got had enough of c/f decals so i had a play about with a pair of the wifes old tights to make a c/f look on some akward part i like the way it came out i painted the parts blak first stretched over the tights over the pats and lightly spray gun metal over and you have a sort of c/f pattern  here are the pictures this is only my first try at this not bad effort



Also most of the bodywork has now been finished all i have left to do is the seatbelts and also the engine needs painting up had a bit of aproblem with the rear wing had to remove the top fin and strip and repaint white i have a spare decal and then i can put in place

That's too cool! Have you built one of theses before? I have one in my stash, along with the Marlboro decals, but I am a little bit intimidated by it. Is it an easy build, or does it present some problems? I'm looking forward to the engine in this one, have you started it yet? Your paint looks great on it, keep us updated.

Jezz-very nice work.  Question though-when you are streching the hose/stocking/tights over the part to paint the carbon fiber, how do you get it to adhere to curves & indentions?

Thanks

Bob

this one is now finished all went well with this kit but my only gripe is the rear body does not fit that well i had to fit small tabs of plastic card under rear body so the fit is closebut ther is a small gap around the bottom lip but the right angle on a photo will hide that !.

How long did it take you from start to finish?
At the end of the day one's work may be completed but one's education never!
