That is very nice looking, I always had a thing for the Testarossa!

That is absolutley brilliant!
You should drill out the exhaustpipes though, seems to be a bit nit-picking but on such a great build it really would do a lot for the overall apperance.

Thank's for sharing.

One of my least favourite Ferraris but what a brilliant job you've made of it. The paintwork looks like glass! Did you use a clear coat or is that just a lot of polishing?

It looks great! And I know this sounds stupid, but the windshield wipers look great... nice and realistic. They match the rest of the car... which is amazing. I can't wait to see other works from you.

Everybody's opinion it is grateful.
My work style is simple extremely, it is a formula.
All coat paint is thin in 15 min intervals.

Kit->#2000 sand paper(Tamiya) ->Yellow color coat 2 time air brushing-> #2000 sanding -> Red color coat 4 time -> dry to 5 day~1 week. -> #2000 sanding -> compound -> waxing.

First base color Gunze Color #4 (not used surface primer. reason to be thick mold.

Main color 'Gunze #3 Red' try 4th coat.
The tamiya the italian red(TS-8) is the color which it dislikes personally.

Tamiya #2000 sand paper use.

Some parts used Acustion etching. (logo, Initial, pedal, number plate use. but disk,wiper, seatbelt it does not use.)

1/24 modeler's "N" type wiper use.
This product is the realty it likes. 'R' type both mainly use.

side winker product 'wave: R-Rivets Clear type'

compund: Modeler's Top compound 2000

The compund of the tamiya compared to it excels personally in scratch removal.

One of the first Ferraris I noticed when I was a little boy - you've done a superb job on it. Congratulations! Excellent paint and shine.

hey teszion (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/member.php?u=121611)!!
your works are really wonderful!!
and i find that my model skills should be improved more!

i wanna ask....
have you used all the tamiya compund(3 kinds that in your photos)?
what is the order of the use of the compound??

and i wanna ask you,
after sanding the surface of the model by using #2000 sand paper,
the surface(between the top surface and the model) is so rough,
even using compound(the one with white cover)......

i think...you have use the one with red cover first, and then use the other one ?
because i see your model is vyvy smooth(even under bright)after sanding and useing compound.

please help me to slove the problems,thanks!!
(sorry for my poor english!!><)

Hi. hiace
tamiya compound sequence method.
Red package(coarse) -> Blue package(fine) -> White package(finish)

plastic body->#600/800 sanding -> surface coat -> #2000 sanding(dissatisfaction face as occasion demands or ignor. you choice :))-> user color coat.
It worked in only the foundation which is sufficient.
thanks.
