Cool Finished: Ferrari F40
This is the Tamiya kit built box stock, painted with Tamiya TS8 and unpolished because the real F40's have a rough finish due to the kevlar weave pattern underneath the paint.

I used a .005 black pen to color in the 'belt'.

This is a joint build between my nephew and I, he started the kit years ago as I was teaching him how to build, then he moved away and no longer had time to finish it. He had assembled the chassis/engine and most of the interior, I painted the body and finished it.











Here's a close up of real car showing kevlar pattern beneath paint:

The paint on your model looks much more cleaner than the original one
Very impressive!

Only the engine hood seems not to fit exactly- typically for this kit?
