Re: AFMOTY 2012: Official Rules and Entry Information
Well, all the 13 models I finished this year are restorations of old diecasts, so probably I would not qualify for AFMOTY. However, I believe that restoring and old diecast is way harder than building a brand new plastic model kit, like a Tamiya one, where every single piece is present and fits perfectly in its place. To restore a diecast model, you have to carefully figure out how to disassemble it without breaking anything, strip all the paint, fill all the imperfections with putty (I use cyanoacrylate glue an baking soda, no shrinking, no detaching from metal), rebuild pieces (I use sheets of polystyrene taken from CD-ROM cases, glued with trichlorethylene), polish transparent parts, straighten wheel axles and so on. Next year I will begin some of my 29 plastic model kits, and hopefully I will enter AFMOTY.
Here there are all the 29 plastic model kits I have still to build: 1/24 - Italeri - Ferrari 250 California spider - Rosso Corsa 300/9, black interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Ferrari 250 GTO - Rosso Corsa 300/9, black interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Ferrari 250 SWB - Rosso Corsa 300/9, black interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Ferrari 275 GTB coupé - Rosso Corsa 300/9, black interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Ferrari 275 GTS spider - Rosso Corsa 300/9, black interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Ferrari 288 GTO - Rosso Corsa 300/9, black interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Ferrari 288 GTO - Rosso Corsa 300/9, black interiors - Restoration 1/24 - Italeri - Ferrari 348 tb coupé - Rosso Corsa 300/9, black interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Ferrari 348 tb coupé - Rosso Corsa 300/9, black interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Ferrari 348 tb coupé - Rosso Corsa 300/9, black interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Ferrari 348 ts targa - Rosso Corsa 300/9, black interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Ferrari 365 GTB Daytona coupé - Rosso Corsa 300/9, black interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Ferrari 365 GTB Daytona coupé racing - Rosso Corsa 300/9, black interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Ferrari 365 GTS Daytona spider - Rosso Corsa 300/9, black interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Ferrari 512TR - Rosso Corsa 300/9, black interiors 1/24 - Fujimi - Ferrari Dino 246 GT - Rosso Corsa 300/9, black interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Ferrari F40 - Rosso Corsa 300/9, black interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Ferrari F40 racing - Rosso Corsa 300/9, black interiors 1/24 - Tamiya - Ferrari Mythos - Rosso Corsa 300/9, black interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Ferrari Testarossa - Rosso Corsa 300/9, black interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Iveco Fiat 190.38 Special (“Cowboy”) - Rosso Corsa 300/9, dark gray interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Freightliner Aerodyne - Non metallic black, tan interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Lamborghini Countach 25th Anniversary - Non metallic white, black interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Lamborghini Countach 5000 - Non metallic white, black interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Lamborghini Diablo VT - Non metallic white, black interiors 1/24 - Hasegawa - Lancia Delta Integrale - Non metallic white, dark gray interiors 1/24 - Italeri - Mercedes-Benz 2448 - Metallic silver, dark gray interiors 1/24 - Tamiya - Toyota Land Cruiser 80 VX Limited - Metallic silver, dark gray interiors 1/16 - Italeri - Ferrari Testarossa - Rosso Corsa 300/9, black interiors - Restoration |
