MCM Regular

MCM Regular (3/6)

  1. I have clear coated the body and need to wait several days until it allows polishing. Meanwhile, I will take care about interior. Having thought it will be almost covered and not too much exposed, the overall detail level of interior is not too high.
  2. Some progress after several days passed applying the decals. I had to install back windows before the clear coat due to "Snap-on" decal partially covering glazed part. There is a manufacturer's mistake of "22 crew" tail decal. Word "Crue" should be red, but I can't do anything about it. The overall decals are great quality, very thing and easy to apply.
  3. Managed to finish the "worst" part of decal works - these red/black strips and tail light stickers. Bottom skirting of the body is black with only СF part around the exhaust same as original. There is also yellow strip on the bottom of the skirt.
  4. Thank you. Yes indeed. I wil take care about it later after body is finished.
  5. I have some progress today. Tested the windshield - all looks quite acceptable. I have done some extra polishing around wind edges to make make them sit even. The body is painted from inside. The threshold is painted black (for this car it is black but not CF). Continued assembling the cage on the floor with some heat reflecting foil.
  6. Thank you! Tamiya standard yellow spray TS-16 on top of the white primer works perfect for this Penske car.
  7. Have the floor painted and pre-assembled back part of the cage. Looking for СF decals. Those from Cartograph are out of stock 😞
  8. The paint of the base yellow is finished with no significant inperfections.
  9. I have started from body sanding and engaving of the panel lines. Then opened several holes for radiator intake, cooling of the brakes, exhausts and hood grills.
  10. The kit looks great as usual, I expect to spend some joyful time with it.
  11. This new Slavinos JR kit is to replicate Joey Logano 2024 Ford Mustang Phoenix race. Curbside model is planned to be built.
