Ferrari 250LM 1965 Le Mans - Climax/MFH 1/24

[gtziaf]

Fifty years ago, Jochen Rindt and Masten Gregory wins Le Mans 24 hours in the wheel of a Νοrth American Racing Team's Ferrari 250 LM. This is the last overall victory of Ferrari, in legendary 24Hour race.
Early this year I decide to celebrate this anniversary, with the construction of this particular Ferrari , with #5893 for serial number and the No 21 on her doors.


For this, I use the Climax kit which repacked bye MFH. It takes me over six months and found it very difficult in many ways. Finally, I manage to finish it so I can publish it... Here you are:

The whole WIP here

Hope you like it.
Thanks for your support during this build.

I like all your works George! This Ferrari looks very good too. Just two things that I don't like: misty windscreen and too low ends of exhaust pipes.

Thank you my friend for your good word and your comments.

For the windscreen, I don't know why looks so foggy in some photos. Nothing similar in real model. If you see the 6th photo seems OK. Maybe, because I took the photo outdoors without any light and no sunshine Then, because they are dark, I add brightness but this addition damage the clearance.

For the pipes you are absolutely right. Maybe If I shorten them, they look mere correct. If you notice it in during the WIP, I can solve it. Now, I didn't want to damage the model.

In, generally, as maybe you know is a very difficult model to close. For sure it isn't perfect, but I 'm happy that I manage to finish it. The next one will be better, I hope

Excellent workmanship and perfect detailing under the hood make a really outstanding model.
