My Enzo Progress...

The rubbing job on this Enzo was hard. Too many hard-to-rub surface and sharp points. It's not very easy to paint the red evenly on the 8 pieces of car bodies.

Very nice. Don't rush it. Those wheels would look stunning on my NSX.

Yellow needs a very good white base surface. I'm too lazy to do that!
And every time I make yellow cars they have bad luck. e.g. Pennzoil GTR, 911GT3, both had to repaint...
I don't like the dark engine room in a dark car. I like the contrast of red and black more.

Yea, I agree. Didn't someone build a yellow one? I can't find it. I hate when a bunch of people build the same model in the same color. :mad:

Yes, Ferraris look best in read. I wouldn't go as far to say they are the ONLY cars that don't look boring in red. I just think it is boring to make every Ferrari model red, especially when tons of other people made the same model in red. If I get an Enzo, I am painting it something different like blue... Well, maybe not blue, but it won't be red. :D

Well, that looks to be coming along very nicely. Despite the curves and ridges, you've done a great job polishing

Wow...I just got my Enzo today, and got my first look at the kit on Friday night. Nice model. Worth big $$ but I'm glad I got a good "insider" discount keeping the total to $27 US delivered. The kits just officially hit the US last week.
While I'm of the small but vocal "anti-red" minority, I must say after seeing yours that if you're going to paint it red, you have definitely done it justice! That's a great finish. Keep us posted w/the building details.
I've seen many 1:1 Ferraris in red, and for the most part their factory paint jobs are average at best. Yours is a masterpiece.
I'm looking forward to the brave souls who may attempt other "Ferrari-common" shades like silver or white, or even black...that's a lot of tricky polishing indeed!

Lau Bak, you may have found the polishing hard but it looks like it was all worth it! That's a fantastic shine you've achieved.
