How do you find the bodywork decals are in terms of fit and going together without leaving gaps?
Just curious for when I pull my own one of these kits down.

very easy mark. the decals go right up to the body panels and with the microsol they drop right into the panel lines.

not alot done today on the RA107 my engine seized yesterday (on my actual car) so I had to go car shopping and get my broken car donated...

probably will work on this until the wee hours of the morning so that the whole body is done with their decals.

I would have glued the winglet and chimneys with the body directly, to prevent glue on decals eventueally and white fog.
Nice work so far, those decasl are working like a charm , I was the first surprised ;)

well after 2 weeks I am finished with this model. I will tell you that Multimedia kits are alot harder than Tamiya or Revell. I think this will probably be my only Mutli kit. I am happy with the outcome. Jenson Buttons hand painted helmet looks hilarious cause I am not the best painter. (but its good enough for me) I was going to try CF decals on this car but I think I am doing it on my project I am on now. The Tamiya MP4/5B. Here is the finished product.
