Re: WIP Testarossa's Meeting (Ferrari Testarossa '84, 512TR and Mythos)

Hello Again…
I make some progress in 512 TR…
We start with interior parts. After I primed with an old Humbrol grey…




I start some enhancement to the seats. I begin by cutting the headrest off the seat.
I attached seats backs, from evergreen thin styrene. After that, I make some holes for headrest.
I choose to cut the headrest, from one seat (for driver only) for an asymmetrically and more realistic view. In many cases, I think, the passenger don‘t adjust the headrest, just enjoys the ride…
So we have this:








The interior‘s color, are German Desert Yellow (FS30400) from Lifecolor!! I chose a lighter tone, than Testarossa’s interior. The dashboard painted with semi gloss black.







The engine parts painted with Alclad‘s Aluminum, after a regular masking procedure. As you see, I cut the exhaust system from the back of the engine. (Fujimi give it in one piece with the chassis).




Finally I decide to paint exterior with Zero‘s Jet Black color. I already have it, in my stock (I don’t really know where can use it. I bought it, after a mistake… the correct paint, that I realy want are a Lotus black.)




After that, the body cleacoated with Zero‘s Laquer and waxed.







That concludes these update. I planning to finish the 512TR soon, so stay tuned..

Aaaa, this is not a good modelling picture, but I like it, so I want to share it, with the guys here. Gilles watching my job…




Thanks to everyone who followed this WIP!
I wait for your comments…
