Used Alclad2 "polished Aluminium" for the exposed aluminium of the Monocoque. very tricky masking, I think I'd do that first next time. Has anyone got any advice on the order that is best for spraying these kind of multiple colours.?
Just got to do some brush work on the opening for the steering column and the nose cone latches.
Added the scalpel in the shot to give an idea of the size ( or lack of it  ).

Not much done this week. Somehow got distracted with other stuff.
The detail on top of the tank is a little sparse so I'm going to add a bit of hosing and cable.

I cut some shim stock to form around the air bottle and used Alclad2 for a chrome finish on the oil tank header, fuel pump and filler caps. Also added a couple of stub pipes to the tank to attach hoses. RM1 attached the following image(s):

T here is no feature on the panel behind the instruments representing the Fire extinguisher control box. I made a small box from offcuts of the sprues, sprayed it red and will add some detail to it shortly.
It sits under the steering column.
