Great work as always :wink: ! Looks like the decals got the male-pattern baldness gene and lost their hair. Seems they turned out OK :D .
Looking forward to more progress.
Cheers,
Chris

Looks fantastic!!

Always liked this car. The 2001+ livery is a classic, but this one always looked more 'BMW' to me. Very clean and sharp.

Decals are on and first coat of clear is dry. Sanded down with 1200grit before it gets the 2nd coat. Touchups done with TS55 and the match is great!

Wings, suspension & seat and it's done! What a great livery... classic Williams =)

After a super heave layer of clear - super shiny! Can't wait to polish this one out =)

you can hide the little depression inside the side air intake with some carbon too.
Gorgeous and pure livery, really cool ;)

More progress:

* Rear wing masked off for TS55 (not quite a perfect match, but probably more due to the decal problem)
* Steering wheel pinched from FW24 with blue grips painted black
* Rear suspension mockup + floor c\f (SMS + smoke)
* Clear problem is gone and after two HUGE coats of clear I'm ready to start sanding and polishing.. this is the smoothest paint job I've had from a can, so looking forward to sanding and polishing this one.
* Front wing done and ready for clear - will wait and clear all the final parts at once because I'm running out of clear =)
