Steven Van Dyck ForfatterIt was a rowdy start with the left part of the frame warped. I removed the warp with a thread tended between the wheelbays. Some changes were done to the interior to place the PE parts. A lot of parts are still dry-fit until after painting everything black. A strange thing is the gauge decal that has to be reversed from the sheet.

Steven Van Dyck ForfatterBienvenuti everybody, today some PE is fixed to the body after it was cleaned of sprue parts with a saw, to save the window styles. I wanted to open up the deaeration ducts before placing the PE gills. I also felt the need to sand the orange monobloc clearparts, they have visible sinkmarks.

George WilliamsGreat work so far, Steven, and a nice reference book. What colour have you painted the bodywork?

Steven Van Dyck ForfatterThanks, George. At this moment no paint has been applied yet. Instructions for the entire frame are a mix semi gloss/ matt black, but my reference for the interior seems to be leather brown. This will be done with Tamiya and Gunze paints. The outside will be the emerald green paint I showed on the pictures. I think this is solvent based, it's ten years ago I used that in an airbrush.
