Chris Smith Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 72 Ferrari 312PB Model Factory Hiro 1/12. It took me 3 months to complete. I really enjoyed building this kit, but I was amazed that I completed it in such a short period of time… Hopefully you like it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave B Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 That's a magnificent build Chris, as all your builds are. I'm not game enough to tackle a 1/12 MFH as I don't think I could do it justice!! Dave B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majel Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 That is a gorgeous model. The fact that you completed it in three months blows me away!! Fantastic job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Chernosky Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Absolutely stunning. I was fortunate to see these race and even more fortunate to just aquire a 1/24 model of this car. I will use this for reference so thanks so much for the WIP and posting the finished model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1959scudetto Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 (edited) Fantastic model, Chris - everytime you look at the pictures, you will see new details. (I can't imagine how you could finish a model like this in such a short time...) Edited August 18, 2022 by 1959scudetto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for the compliment! I was too young to see these race, but I wish I could have. One of my favorite racing cars. I hope you have great success on your build. I am glad I could help!

Nacho Z Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Your last comment was "hopefully you like it". Sorry to disappoint you, Chris, I don't like it. Nope. I LOVE that thing!! You make it look easy to build a MFH kit. Anyone that knows MFH knows that's not the case. Great work, Sir. Bravo! She is absolutely gorgeous! I am really looking forward to the next one.

Pierre Rivard Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 I can't believe how you can start from resin body panels and bags and bags of little white metal parts and turn it into such a magnificent model. You are a true artist. I salute you! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
