MFH 1:20 Ferrari 126 CK Monaco 1981

This is a Model Factory Hiro gem. The "new version" 126 CK. A superb kit. Ultra-detailed, but still room for (minor) improvements. Major problem was the "chrome" paint job. My first attempt with Alclad was not a success. Problem is the paint will not totally harden and this makes it very difficult to handle those big parts. Instead I used Finished Chrome and this was a much better solution for this project.

Superb stuff, and you put it togheter clean and crispy, and very detailed.

The only thing I'll see replaced are those folded tubes between the valvle covers and the fuel tank: may be a rod would make the work better.

Congrats, can't wait to see it dressed. 126C2 is my preferred F1 ever, Ck is a bit less cool with those strange square cover over the engine's area, but ever a terrific F1
