Ferrari F60 Enzo....

[nicecar]

I am starting a level 4/5 model enzo and I dunno what colour to paint the exterior( using a paintbrush ) , Either Red or Black.

I am going to paint all of the parts first, then stick it all together.

will get pics soon

what colour is it moulded in?

i'd say buy a spray can, as i've never ever seen a decent paint job (on a large area) with a brush.

go for yellow, or if you hate that i'd say black. (but i've heard that it is a really hard colour to get looking good)

Moulding is in white, I dont have a lot of yellow.

I can borrow my uncles air brush like i did with the last model i did (but my dad did it 4 me and he didnt sand it or anything)it ended up with marks on it and the all over colour was uneven so I ended up giving it to my uncle to re-do it all (he is like a professional when it comes to models , his house is full of them).

Borrow it and try for yourself! It's not that hard but the results can be very professional.

What is 4/5 btw?

that is a difficulty rating by Revell.

I am going to airbrush it myself, but will practice on the exess plastic first.

As said before don´t do that - on such a big area working with paintbrush will not look clean.

Buy a spray can from your lokal hobby store or use automotive paint - you will have a much better result on the car and your personal fun in building will increase.
