Synopsis: They've 3D printed a steering column shroud and some new wheel arch test pieces (for which there is a "Howie does Archie" video). The interior trimmers are working away. It's reasonable to believe that paint has been shot at some if not all the metal work.
The appearance of Episode 33 is marginally more likely that a further return of Tanya Roberts (RIP), but whilst holding your breath may protect you from Covid it's not recommended as a strategy to anticipate the next episode release.

I still think it will be all white. Most things turn out all white in the end.

Or parcel-tape brown? I don't think we're going to be able to tell from the underbody protection colour. smile

I think I once read that (apart from the obvious Brazilian flag link) Senna kept his helmet bright yellow so as to build the myth that 'lesser' drivers should pull over whenever the got a glimpse of yellow in their mirrors. Following this thinking, Nik should go with dayglo yellow (with lots of blue flashing lights) - but I suppose that might create fewer opportunities to exercise the safety turbo.

BOM posted on Twitter....

...Meanwhile, back to Binky 33 tomorrow.

 


Right hold on, what I mean by "Back to Binky 33 tomorrow" is that we'll be working on episode 33 tomorrow. Expect it'll be before the end of January though. Probably. Not been easy lately.

They posted another picture. Let's just say that I'm feeling less confident about white just now...

Great undercoat for white - better for BRG!

I wonder if it is a zinc chromate type layer for protecting Binky from the rampant salt-spreaders? It does look really glossy though around the screen frame and engine bay though, so maybe that's just an enthusiastic painter trying to add weight.

I'm not sure who wins the colour competition.

... it's the person who guesses the correct colour - but that's not important right now.

White. Binky was white, although white horses are referred to as Grey for some reason, maybe it will be white with a grey roof?

 

We are not worthy!

Never guessed at the logo in a chequered roof though. As for that pinstriping - sublime!
