Re: ferrari 458 italia
Thanks alot guys, im thinking the colour combo of TS-85 Bright Mica Red with either carbon or gun metal or semi gloss black for body. Wheels will be in matt black or smoke. since i dont have air brush, i think TS-85 is the nearest to Rosso Scuderia.

Re: ferrari 458 italia
Great Start, one small Q: is this a Fujimi or Revell Kit? What PE parts will you be using?

Re: ferrari 458 italia
hi, heres a little update. finished off removed the lower left airvent... moved forward to upper airvent... ive made a choice to replace with PE... is a big risk to me... use d original plastic to mold the PE in shape... took me almost an hour to did that..  Removed the plastic solid vent... need to be fix due to over cut d plastic...   Test-fit the PE... quite satisfied... but still need to touch up..    thats all for today... call it a day... all comment are welcome.

Re: ferrari 458 italia
nice start !
where is your PE from ? personal cutting or is it a branded TK ? I have the Revell 458 and this rounded angle PE part is a pain to form from a generic sheet... but seems that there still isn't any TK for Revell.

I'm pretty sure Hobby Design will come out with a PE set for the Revell, though. The more likely question is when. |

I can't find confirmation in his posts above but you're surely right it seems logical it's HD PE set as it's the only one available for the moment if I'm not wrong... Let's wait for Revell's set.
