See before and after pictures of the underside of the monocoque:
Also spent a ton of time working on the rear crush structure and diffuser. I have to say that this is the only part of the kit that I think was poorly done. It's tough to make these shapes, but Revell made the rear of the car like a toy, while the rest of the kit is great in detail and engineering. Only one complaint about an F1 kit is pretty great. Really hard to explain what is going on here and why, if you try to build the kit, you'll see the problem I'm confonting. It'll all come together smoothly later. Arrows below show filling in gaps in the diffuser.

And here, the diffuser gets some turning vanes.

I'll be heading off to GdaĆsk for the long weekend, so this is a perfect time to apply some putty to the kit and give it about a week to cure.
Total: 12.5 hours
