Oh wow, it's 1/43 - I had forgotten that. I think you're right about learning new skills this way, that's a great idea. That red paint is beautiful btw, really delicious looking.

I just realized that it looks twice larger on my screen than in real life. Amazing. Did you use a magnifying glass?

No, not really, but it is rather small:

Splendid, as always.

It really is a small model. I've got a Red Line Models 250 GTO Diecast in the same scale, it's a very nice model but yours look even better.

I have couple more 43rd scale project that will be completed very soon. These small scale builds are
whole different ball game and require completely different set of skills, which helps me to learn new ways of building models and helps to improve and develop my building techniques.

and after you work on 43rd scale long enough, start work on a 1/24th and you'll think its a 1/1 scale

excellent build alex, Renaissance makes such terrific kits
