Very tidy build Nem, I like the way you've kept the colours to the minimum giving it great effect (in my humble opinion  )Ive been debating whether to go down that route with my build  and now,you've given me clarity, looking forward to more pics soon McLaren MP4/23

Once the fairings and side panels are on, there is very little to see, and the colours that are stated in the instructions vary so little in shade that I didnt think it would matter if I only used certain colours. To be honest, if I had left the engine out you would never have noticed!!!

Nice job Daran and can't wait to see it painted up in the same colours as your real one!!  
Just noticed you've got some primer on your nice new turntable mate - tut, tut!! 
Keep up the good work, watching with interest!!

Purple going on first. Once dried for 24 hours I can apply the masks and apply the yellow-green. Then decals and then clear lacquer.
