    It's not completed yet but figured I'd post some preview pix as it should be done within the week hopefully. It still needs a windshield since I cracked the one it came with on accident so I'm waiting for a replacement from Revell. Then just the wheels, a few decals, grills, and a quick wax and it will be done. I'll post more pix when it's finished.

    PS: The yellow came out kind of funy in these pix under the light I was using.

    I have the spyder version of it. Its a good model and all but i kinda messed up on it. I spray painted it and got some finger prints on it so i decided to buy a little bottle of the same color paint to do touch ups. Messed that up to so now the paint looks like abslute crap. The rest is good though. Im looking forward to your finished product!

    nice paint.exuse my comment, I don't mean to bust your chops but I believe a classic Ferrari color combo would be yellow with all black interior.Yellow stitching is a nice option too.

    Put on some dry wash, it will look more realistic.

    testor Spray can which was good till i got finger prints on it by accident so i did touch ups with a little bottle of the same shade. I found more screw ups and when a little wild i guess... Next up i want to get a 288GTO and i will not do the touch ups again...

    I'd recomment Tamiya spray over testors goes on alot nicer, and there are a few tutorials out there that give great how to's on layering the paing primers and stuff like that.
