I started off priming all the body parts. After that all the part have been painted white (Tamiya LP2). After this was dry the masking madness started to paint parts of the body in semi gloss black and black. For both I used the Tamiya Lacquer Paints.
Next I moved on to panel next to the seat. The instructions are saying it’s supposed to be black, but a lot of reference pictures are showing this area in a kind of yellow, almost Kevlar like look. So I decided to go for that as there is enough black inside
The highlight in that area is for sure the steering wheel. First I applied the decal from the kit. Over that I put the carbon decal from S27, which fits perfectly.
This car is really a pile of carbon with wheels 🙂
The inside walls of the monocoque have also been covered with carbon

Thomas WildАвтор Thanks Andrew.
I'm still figuring out what the right sequence is.
I guess it's because you are so caught up in the beginning with masking/painting/masking

I’m still not sure if I like the look of the car. It’s weird but for sure special and the complexity of the kit was intriguing me.
It’s a Christmas break project, but it will for sure keep me busy for a while.
Especially in combination with the Studio 27 Carbon kit, there are about 200 decals to be applied
