Complete: Fujimi F430

[willimo]

This is the Fujimi kit of the F430. It's mostly stock. The option parts version netted me these wheels and these seats. I did, however, replace the tires because I didn't like the ones in the kit. These look wider, and more detailed. I also added the Accu-Stion PE set, which is great. It's really awesome to be able to see the engine through the vents on either side of the rear window, and through the vents in the back and front. It's just... cool. The brake detail was cool, too, even though I know the real F430 doesn't use metal rotors (or something weird like that) and I did like the PE horse for the rear and scripts for the intake plenum. I didn't use the other PE badges, because they would look to thick. The PE windsheild wipers are cool! I don't think I'll ever go back to the plastic kit ones. I also added seatbelts, and a "Let's Go: Greece!" tour book, and there's a paper Greek license plate as a placeholder until I find my decal paper. The sign on the building is for Athens Luxury Import - the idea behind this one is that if I went back to live in Greece, this'd be my knock-around car while I stayed at the Grande Bretagne, island hopped, drank plenty of Ouzo, and chased hot, topless Greek girls on the beaches.















And for a laugh:



Green with envy?

Will,

can you post a picture of the area you used for taking these photographs? It looks just as impressive as the model itself. Simple yet impressive and realistic.

Excellent work and a fabulous finish. The photoetch bits and wire mesh really make it stand out.
