Re: WIP: Tamiya 1/24 Ferrari F40 Competizione

thanks very much for your kind comments - here's a little more progress...

The interior is starting to take shape, I added the electronics boxes with Perfect Parts brass connectors and a fire extinguisher with details added from the spares box. There is a little more to do here but I don't want to go over the top...



Having done all the mods to the floor I added paint and c/f, the inner engine bay is just matt black...





I also decided to add the under floor 'veins', these were made from plasticard and covered in C/F for a little added detail. These seem to be common on most of the Competitizone's you see on the net but are not included in the Tamiya box...



finally, finished the wheels, not too much to do here I sprayed them with gloss black and clear coated with semi gloss clear. I added some tyre valves from fuse wire, the centre nuts are dark silver with a little wash with a very dark brown colour. Seems odd not adding tyre decals these days but the kit doesn't come with any... I may add some though if I can find a set of Pirelli markings maybe.



Thanks as always for following along
