Ferrari 360 Spider **Very intensive pic**

Sorry for slow connection, but I can't select only few Pic.. I love this car :D :D
This is a Tamiya Ferrari 360 Spider. An awersome kit.

Paint:
Testor White Primer Acrylic by airbrush
Model Master Guard Red Spray Can (2 coat)

For those that read this board ofen, you know I got a problem with the rear engin window.. this one is an HOME MADE window.. that look a bit worst that the orriginal one, but i didn't have choice. The Car is unpolished...

Let Me know what you think !

Not bad at all... the paint needs cutting to get rid of the orange peel, but it's nice and shiny. The engine cover seems well done enough.
GOod job on that

wow nice 360~ looks nice~ go out and take some outdoor pics~can't wait to c them la! lookin good lookin good~

Good job on the engine cover..i love the black/tan interior...go and polish that baby!!

good job, especially on the engine cover :)

Great job, looks very cleanly built and well done with the engine cover. Should look alot nicer after polishing - strange that u have left that til after gluing everything in place???

I made it with a small Plastic pakage I got from Black Ink for my printer.. I cut it the right size and it worked !


The orange peel is the effect that make the paint look rugh... You can see it on Pic #2 on the hood where the light reflect.. you see small "texture"... it's not miror effect (that would be perfect)

This model have very few, but look in the gallery my Porsche Boxster is horrible becose of this (and even if I have sand it)

Just curious..what kind of paint do you use to spray the body to cause you to wait 4-6 weeks? and also, what about kits with decals, you might polish the decals away?

Vric : I get it, thanks :)
