Ferrari F430

[ConfederateInfidel]

Hi all, thought I would post a couple pics of my Revell F430. The paint is a not-so-smooth Tamiya Camel Yellow. I used the revell Focus racing seats, but otherwise its boxstock. I painted the rims Metallizer aluminum plate with Tamiya black spokes, I think it helps set off those red calipers.




I had a lot of assembly problems, nothing went the way it should. So many, that I was hesitant to start on my Revell SuperAmerica, but so far it has went together so much easier.

It's an interesting color combo for a F430, I like it! I think you missed the grille though from the rear end around the ferrari badge, or is it purpose? Anyway, can you post outside pictures without flashlight? I would love to see some...

As for your fitment problems, I feel for you, my Revell F430 was the same, so I think it's not you. It's interesting, my Revell F430 spider was better so was my Revell Superamerica...

Looks really nice in that yellow and the wheels suit it perfectly painted black.

Looks good! Hopefully I'll get to start mine soon. Didn't think yellow would look that well on the 430 but you've made me like it

Thanks for the compliments!

Yes the rear grill was left out because I didnt like the way the decal looked, and at the time I didnt have any mesh. I took those pics from under my car, it was starting to rain. I'll get some more when I take pics of my Superamerica this week.
