White Enzo

Revell's terrific Enzo kit. I have the Tamiya as well, but I'm terrified to start it. I've got 3 more Revell's to build; then I should be ready for the Tamiya.

The paint is Krylon for plastic gloss white. Polished up nicely, but it seemed to need a little extra. I was working on the Mustang GT and thought the black stripes might look pretty good. I forgot to paint the wing, so I covered it with a piece of scrap SMS High Def CF. Turned out OK. Didn't like the silver wheels, so I stripped them and painted them black ala the FXX. The templates for the screen were way off, so I had to make tape templates for them. Looks fairly realistic, although much bigger than Tami's.

I think I'll add a GT style wing and see how it looks. I saw an awesome Enzo GT on another board that was absolutely incredible (Is it OK to link to another site?). Might do something like that on the next one.

The pics:









I think next time I'll use Tamiya's painting instructions for the Revell Enzo. Most of the Revell instructions conflict with the Tamiya,and look nothing like the real Enzo. Used cigarette foil for the firewall. Could be applied neater next time. Engine bay:





Body:













Does anyone have a spare Ferrari logo like the one on the front quarter panel? Mine is MIA.

Thanks!
