Decals are done, for a sheet that is around 30 years old these have behaved quite well and gone down without too much of a fight. I decided to go with the full Camel livery for more colour. I was just going to do the Camel images but thought the car would be a little sparse in appearance. Next up will be covering these in 2K. which will help with a slight rip i have on the nose #4.

Good choice to go with the full Camel. Looks excellent, makes me want to pull out a Camel Lotus from the stash...

I have now done a covering of 2K, and it has gone down well and really brought the Camel yellow out well and made the blue of the decals stand out. I managed to get a little bit of dust on one side pod but apart from that all seems to be OK.

Thank you gents for the comments....
Time to get the wheels and tyres done, the fronts are gold and the rears are black, i used Tamiya Semigloss black for the fronts and Tamiya gold. Sanded thew tyres to remove the wonderful seam line, i started with 400 grit wet and dry and then a 1200 to remove any rough areas.
