Tamiya 1/24 ferrari f50
Hello
This is the latest model I finished this summer, build for nearly one year. The tamiya F50 kit have some issues with the front bonnet shape, so I cut the front bonnet for trim as I start making this kit. Then an idea grows in my mind, why not cut the doors by the way and try my first full open model?And it turn out to be much harder than it appeared on these modeling course books.... The color I want to make is Ferrari's argento nurburging. But the tamiya kit is a launch version Ferrari F50. Build a non red F50 means some parts of the tamiya kits needs to transform into a market version F50's parts. the most tough one is the front radiator cooling fan. Paint I use is a argento test sample from my friend. I'm satisfied with the fine metallic color. But the Finishers auto clear clear coat I familiar with turns yellow due to my bad storage way.(it sits near my window and takes sunlight from time to time)So the first paint attempt fails and I repainted this model with slow dry GX100 by comparison instead. Sorry about the rear left suspension deattached while I taking the pics....I find out afterwards,fortunately its a easy fix You can see the WIP here https://www.facebook.com/skunk.chao/...1227290&type=3 |

Re: Tamiya 1/24 ferrari f50
Having built this kit in the past, I know how much work went into building this kit to look like it does now. Superb work!

Re: Tamiya 1/24 ferrari f50
Just out of curiosity, what CF decals did you use? The look great with silver car (though, a bit incorrect for the real car I might add, color-wise), and looks like conform real well.
Also, would love to see the overall shot of the front with the boot opened up.

Re: Tamiya 1/24 ferrari f50
Very cool. Lots of scratchbuilding went into that front end.
I really love the build, one to be proud of for sure.
