Hi all I thought I had done my first colour coat then realised the rear fins should have been white on the outside.

And made a start on scratch building the brake air ducting (these bits are tiny 5x8mm)

For the ducting the plan is to use a spring and some shrink wrap (we will see thats the plan anyway))

Oops please mask properly ( how did i make this novice mistake) now I have to mask again.

More progress.

Made the air ducts and flexible hose for the brakes and decided (with great trepidation) to try the old kit decals. Seems they're fine (sighs with relief)

More progress on the 956, added detail to the dashboard

And work on the wheels

[ATTACH]406191[/ATTACH]

Dont know why they used 2 different wheels sets (although it makes no difference when you put the 956 covers on as you can hardly see any of the wheel detail)

And more decal work

Looking forward to seeing the model complete as I have just finished an old kit of the same car with metal body same scale ! Nice work .

[Guest]

On the last leg now (more pipe work to add) but I have to attach the front to the car first and I can't do that till the gloss coat and I can't add that till all the decals were added so here we are
