I started to build this kit about 2 years ago but made a real mess of the bodyshell painting so it has been tucked away in the attic ever since.
Anyway after messing up my McLaren Mp4/5B body and having to strip off the paint I also stripped the body on the Mitsubishi in order to have another go at it.The McLaren is still underway I haven't forgotten about it.I'm waiting for some new decals to arrive so I can re-paint and finish it properly.
The decals on the Mitsubishi were ruined during the stripping so I obtained an excellent sheet from Studio 27 (Rally Australia 2000) I also had some decals left over from an old Focus build giving me the option to do the Rally Australia 1999 or the Rally Great Britain 1999.I'm not going to do the Rally Australia 2000 because the car ran with a different front bumper so I would need to modify it which I don't want to do.
Here's a few progress pictures so far.The underside is very colourful.I've also been trying out the Tamiya enamels which brush and spray very well indeed.The front intercooler needs the blue painting on the hoses.
I will post some more update pictures when I progress further.
