Clearcoat is on and ready to be polished.
I'll put the decals on and give it another round of clear.
These pictures are just quick snaps so not the best quaility but it shows the color now is brighter with the clear on.

Ferrari F60

Manufacturer: Tamiya

Information: Plastic
Paint: Tamiya lacquer / Tamiya acrylics / Krylon
Aftermarket Parts: None - Out of Box

There is much debate over the color of this car because in the pictures you will find from race to race it seems to look different in each picture depending on the light and angle.

I chose to use a metallic silver base followed by a mix of Tamiya Mica Red and Italian Red.

I'm pleased with the color and after the clearcoat the color should pop even more.

Overall a good kit with a few minor fit issues and some questionable details if you're looking for a specific race to represent (it looks to be modeled after the launch). But with a little putty and some new panel lines it's a great addition to the shelf. Clearcoat will go on this weekend with decals and final assembly by Monday.

Ferrari F187/88C

After many months of not being able to build because of work being done on my house I have been a building machine!

I'll be posting pictures over the next few days of all the kits I have completed in the past 6 weeks.

Many of the in progress kits are now complete and some new releases were started and completed. I am introducing my 6 year old son to model building and decided to focus on building Out Of Box for these builds to teach and show him the basics of building. It was a good reminder for me on the basics of building as well as an excellent chance to just gets some builds completed.
