    Great looking model from Tecnomodel in 1/43rd, the Ferrari 512BB Thomson from Lemans 1978. It looks like only the shortnose car #88 is available now. Tecnomodel have been releasing some superb 1/43rd kits this year including 3 Alfa T33/2 showcars.

    Probably my favorite Ferrari. I might have to pick one of these up some day.

    +1 I wish I could read the language, but the pictures say it all. I used to have fun modifying my models, too. But, that's a very professional looking job.

    Thanks for the link. He also posts pictures on a photobucket account. His partner at Airtrax, Tapani will be sending built up photos of the Aston DBS(the original) and BMW 2000CS soon. Those kits are out already with more stuff coming later this year.

    Here is a photo showing the Airtrax 1/24th 500 Superfast so far. I think he did great as usual.

    I also like the Airtrax 250 Lusso body shape better than the Hiro pictures I have seen.
    Unless Hiro does some more work on their master it will be off in the roof area.

    Looks like a very nice kit, but expensive for a transkit. I already have the Big Model 24 kit of this car.

    Some very interesting older car models coming. Will post photos soon.

    Yes, expensive, but they are worth every penny. I have his Porsche 959, and it is like having a super detailed transkit by Fisher. The resin is very similar and the detail is just superb. All you need are a few parts from the Tamiya kit and you have an awesome model that to me looks better than what you get with some of Hiro full kits.

    I saw that one and it also looks great. I did post info on the 959 many pages back.


    Here are some pictures of the Maserati A6GCS Pininfarina coupe kit by Strada24 in 1/24th scale. It may only be sold direct in very very limited numbers and will be expensive. It looks accurate and extremely well done. What a GREAT MASERATI!! The company is run by Marcelo Figliozzi of Argentina. You can see some of his other models a few pages back. He has a very good eye for creating shapes as he hand makes all his masters.

    Hi, I do not have a finished photo of the Airtrax Mercedes. I posted a photo of the body some pages back.

    Nice job, Tom! I would guess that the Heller kits are not as well engineered as the similar Tamiya kits.

    I'm not normally an F1 fan but I am definitely saving up for the new M7A and probably will get both the Yardley and Sunoco M19's.
