Sauber C30 Part 7
Body is painted with a first layer of Mr Super Clear to protect the Tamiya acrylic paint.
I started with Metallic Grey and added gloss black to darken to the right color.
The included masking templates are great and easy to use but we will see after I apply the red stripe how close I got to the right positioning!
Again the kit will be displayed with the nosecone and engine cowling off so I'm also trying to figure out how to build the stands they use on the car.
The last picture you can see I decided to build out the cockpit a bit more based on a picture I found this weekend. Next are the decals and working on the nose section that will be exposed.

Here is the left side radiator with all the bits added.
There will some additional plumbing added and the face polished with Chrome Powder.
The next bit of scratchbuilding will be the front of the suspension area.
This weekend I will paint the body and begin the decal process.
