If this thread could please be moved to the completed section, that would be appreciated. Thanks :-)
Hey all,
First off all I would like to say there are some unbelievable models being made on here! its being really inspiring!
I Havn't posted on here in a couple of years, but I have been watching the forums, and recently i got the motivation to complete a model i began about 5 years ago. This is Tamiya's 1/24 version, built box stock, and its the first time i've used a clear paint over a non-metallic/pearlescent/kandy type paint. The 'pinninfarina' metal transfers were an absolute PITA to attach, and I ended up loosing one. I decided to leave the remaining one off, which is kind of annoying me. The sun visors which attach to the front windshield were lost years ago, and I could of easily covered that up with attaching the roof - but I think this car looks alot better with out it. Any way I hope you enjoy viewing it :-)

Not sure if I've seen a yellow one of these before, but it sure looks good. Pics look a bit glary on my laptop, but they show the car well - lines, color, etc. Very nice.

Yeah.. i took the pics just before sun started to go down. I'm gonna try adjusting the settings on the digi cam for better results.

If I remember correctly, Road & Track's first test used a yellow one, and I liked it a lot. Good job.

I like yellow on it also. You see so many in red these days. I do prefer the top-on look versus top-off for the F50. The style of the car is awsome in coupe version to me. Great job and welcome back to AF. Can you give me just one shot with top-on of that third pic? Thanks
