i love your pics man!really nice work!is that color rosso scuderia?it seems a little lighter than the rosso corsa on those pics.Thanks man! nope its good old ts 8, i guess its because i keep the lamp so close to the model that the paint becomes bright orange, from all the light. I'll take some outdoor pics later on...thanks!

I'm amazed. Amazing work, keep it up!!! Very cool:sunglasse

Back with another update, finally tackled that dash board...was really a challenge decaling it. ;)

wow the paint job, details and decal work is exceptional! I just started working with CF decals so I can really appreciate the decal work you put into that, great job! :thumbsup:

interior looks flawless.

Please share your carbon detailing tricks! Amazing work. What brand decale is the carbon?

There are no tricks just load of patience :smokin: ...the decals are from scale motor sport, they came with the super detail kit. i use Mr. Mark Softer to apply them to the parts, but with Micro sol i think it will be better to work with. Thanks for feed back.

Are those decals on the dash the same as the ones on the engine? For some reason the 'dots' look bigger?

Yes they are, the dash in scale is smaller than the carbon decal in standard fit, thats why the "dots" r bigger, maybe the 1/32 scale decal would look more to the size of actual carbon pattern :dunno:

I'm sure to the naked eye it's not as noticeable. The application is perfection in any case.

More progress in couple of days, still have to wire the engine into correct positions...dont mind the finger prints and dust all wil be clean at the end ;)
