To start with something original, I decided to start with the figure of Senna. I took a racing driver figure from the 'Racing Pit Team', changed the head by a helmet, changed the arms by arms of a sitting driver with gloves.

I also changed the position of the hands and the fingers. I added some detail to the race suit to make it look like a '90ies' suit instead of a late '70ies' suit.

While I was doing the Senna figure that will be seated in the McLaren MP4/5, I decided to spraypaint the MP4/4 Senna figure as well.

The body was sprayed with TS-08 Italian Red. Next I put on the MSM decals.

Once the decals were dry, I could overspray the body with a flat coat.

I also started to paint the shoe logo's manually since there are no decals available in my set.
