Just wanted to say hi and post a few pics. I've been into modeling for about 6 years on and off now, and really started to get into it about 2 years ago, thats when I found AF, but between geting married & buying our first house, didn't have a whole lot of time for modeling. Well, now things have started to settle down a little, and finaly had time to finish a few projects.
Now the pics, This is probably my best model to date, the Tamiya Ferrari 360 Modena yellow version. Painted with duplicolor primer, dark silver metal flake and clear coated, polished 4 times.... Had a little fit problem with the back window........

djmr2.... Yeah, that is a mold line you see, noticed that once it was all painted and cleared.... Knowing my luck I would have mucked the whole model up trying to fix it.....

Thanks for all the complements!!!
