Fantastic work Casino Drool well done indeed..

The "Dumbo" wings where added to the MP4/23 and used during later races including Japan.. Yours should represent The British GP where they did not have the wings fitted.

This looks amazing. A real inspiration for myself, as I'm gonna start my build after my holiday in oktober to New Zealand. Will definitely get myself some microsol, as I want to carbon the hell out of my version as well, as well as some minor paint touch-ups like the silver details in the suspension.

What do you use to cut off the excess carbon around the edges? A standard hobby knife?

thanks rschram

yes pretty much a standard craft knife, sometimes I marked round the object and cut and all was good, sometimes I let the decal dry first and then scrape the knife at a 45 degree ish angle along the edge of the plastic to part the decal and sometimes I'd do it when the decal was semi dry.

hope that helps
