Hello All,
Posted a couple of pics in the other Mp4-23 forum but now going to make a diary here. Knowing me it will be updated every second century!
I am going down the road of a used "Lewis Mobile", not too much but about a 2nd pit stop after he's had meeting with some of his close acquaintances in the never ending chase that is Formula One.
I have started on the wheels and tyres the seat and seat belts. I have taken a little "poetic license" with the thing he waves about to go left and right.
The seat belts do not really show on the picture, but I have dry brushed them with a little gray. the seat is not at all right so back to Woking it goes.
I have 2 front wing assemblies one not built but the other one "Klear" coated, polished and assembled, leaving that aside 'til we see what happens with the colour.
The undertray is done in matt black but the gaps are not filled as yet. I will leave the undertray matt, it suits my eye better.
Anyway ................

No L & R marking yet

Just some of the bright newness taken off and Bar Codes to be added, probably hand paint those. Only problem I have no idea how well the paint will last on the tyre material.

Grey is probably a little light, but darker grey "sponged" on where the wheel is gripped.

Seat belts dirtied up a bit and the steering column silvered and brushed metallic, an I know the tub is not fitted right n proper.
