 Hi All Slow but steady progress with the painting of the bodywork. Started off with micromesh on the bodywork, doors ect and then gave all a coat of Zero's 2 pack undercoat. The sprayed parts were then left for two days and again flatted back with micromesh. Then another coat of undercoat and flatting back ready for the first top coat. The 1/24 roadster had the above treatment first and you can see the results in the first pics the other pics show the bodywork after the first coat of guardsman blue. Some flatting back will probably be needed before the final top coat is sprayed on. The decals and some other parts will be added to the bodywork and after that the two pack Diamond gloss coat will be applied. More soon.
