Re: WIP Hasegawa Ferrari 328 GTS

Back to the interior.

Most of the parts that make up the interior


Tub is a nice representation of the real car; not 100% accurate but good enough.
Here, I've already masked off the centre tunnel and rear engine bay surround and given a spray of Plasti-Kote Suede Touch to simulate carpet (yes, I use this stuff a lot).


Once that had dried, it was masked in turn for the engine surround to painted a semi-gloss black and the centre tunnel Tamiya Wooden Deck Tan for the classic 1980s Ferrari interior.


The doors took a little more time.
As this was a GTS kit (actually I oremember I ordered a GTB kit which this was but on opening, the contents were GTS...) the interior could be seen with the roof off so I decided to add a little more attention to these.
The original kit doors had solid moulded grab handles so I opened these up and while I was at it, I deepened the too shallow panel separation lines too.


As with the tub, I masked each section in turn to give me the combination of black leather, tan leather and carpet on the different sections.








There's a little paint seepage that needs tidying up...

Quick dirty shot of the door panels with the grab handles opened on the left vs closed on the right.


And an even poorer test fit of the base painted interior.



as a side note:
as with my tradition with Ferrari Kits, I think I have once again, lost the gear lever.
