Re: Ferrari 312 t3 - Gilles Villeneuve

First of all hello and welcome to this forum.

You're build is already looking very impressive. I like the details around the steering wheel.
And also the engine and especially the exhaust is looking great.

Will you be posting pictures of your other builds (the stock cars) ?

The build does look good so far! I'm not sure if you're saying the 312T3 or Gilles were terrible, either way I think you are misinformed.

Re: Ferrari 312 t3 - Gilles Villeneuve

Very nice work. I'm also building the same kit at this time.

Can I ask you what paint you used on the chassis parts to replicate the bare aluminum color?

Re: Ferrari 312 t3 - Gilles Villeneuve

Man, that engine is sensational! Got a few painting tips for us? Type of paint, application, etc? Just on the struts - I think you're better off using metal tubes, rather than shaving off the plastic springs and trying to reuse the semi-mangled shaft. I think you'll find it's almost easier, quicker and looks better to use metal tubes. Anyway, superb work, just fantastic. Congrats.
