Here are some updates:
I have been working aboard, so the project was actaully paused.
I came back a couple of weeks ago and resumed to it for now.
and here are how it goes:
Body was painted red for the decal area to save effort applying decals
Chassis is ready now
---------------------------------------------------------------
On the other day, I sprayed the seat into CF~~haha~~
and I sprayed clear coat over the body and waited for a week before I start polishing it
------------------------------------------------------------
Then it came to the cockpit, where I wired up around with my own imagination...LOL~~
And Studio 27 seat belt was first used
Another look on the cockpit
----------------------------------------------------------------
A closer look, I have given it some weathering, which I learn from my airplane model experience, i doubt if I should do it after I have done it... look odd....
Weathering on the brake disc as well...
Seat belt assembly completed
----------------------------------------------------------------
And here are some pics after polishing
