Re: MFH Ferrari 312PB LM '73

The front part of the body is completed, i had to paint the body three times to get it right









I've also completed the chassis. Added couple of switches to the dashboard and sponsor decals to the sides.

Re: MFH Ferrari 312PB LM '73

This is looking fantastic Niko

This was never one of my fav cars (not that I actively dislike it!) but your build is making me think again

Looking very good, These MFH kits can be so frustrating, you can never just build them out the box but the results speak for themselves. Keep at it.

Re: MFH Ferrari 312PB LM '73

Even if it needed 3 paintjobs....it was well worth the effort! That looks sweet!

Re: MFH Ferrari 312PB LM '73

Thanks for the great feedback!

This is probably the last update before completed pics. I added tape around the headlights as per references. Tape is just Tamiya masking tape coloured with a ballpoint pen Also added the Ferrari emblem



Rear part of the body is finally painted polished and decaled. As if just painting it four times wasn't enough i also accidentally dropped and cracked it almost in half. -> Paint and decals away once again. Luckily MFH
included two sets of decals in my kit.



Some details i've added after last update:



This is the way i'll display the model, so those small gaps wont be seen after the previous pics.



-Niko
