Gt fan Posted March 27, 2020 Posted March 27, 2020 I’ve been on a 43rd kick lately and this is my next project. 2001 Ferrari 360 challenge. This is the car that won the Italian championship. BBR has excellent casting and some fantastic details. The body requires very little clean up.
Rich Chernosky Posted March 28, 2020 Posted March 28, 2020 Should be a nice little project Tim, good looking kit.
Gt fan Posted March 29, 2020 Author Posted March 29, 2020 Got some painting done yesterday. Not much else to do... hope to get the body painted today. Thanks for looking.
Nacho Z Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 This is going to be so cool, Tim! Look at those wheels! Amazing detail for 1:43. Looking forward to seeing it completed.
Gt fan Posted March 29, 2020 Author Posted March 29, 2020 After looking at a few pictures I’ve decided to change the dash color
Gt fan Posted March 29, 2020 Author Posted March 29, 2020 I didn’t like the way the engine looked so I added plug wires . I also added some roll bar padding as well. Wire is .0075 in thickness.
Gt fan Posted March 31, 2020 Author Posted March 31, 2020 Interior is just about done. Tie wraps are made with very thin wire. Just have to add the Ferrari logos to the intake.
Gt fan Posted April 1, 2020 Author Posted April 1, 2020 The interior is now complete and the wheels. The body is painted ready for decals. Thanks for looking
vamach1 Posted April 1, 2020 Posted April 1, 2020 Very nice. I have built a number of 1/43 kits and this looks pretty detailed. The decals will be fun.?

Gt fan Posted April 1, 2020 Author Posted April 1, 2020 I built one of those. They build really well. Nice JPS kit
m3fan Posted April 2, 2020 Posted April 2, 2020 Well done Tim! so question for you is do you clear over decals in this scale? Keep pumping out these great builds I’m just putting final touches on a 1/43 Renaissance 1963 Ferrari 250P

Keep pumping out these great builds I’m just putting final touches on a 1/43 Renaissance 1963 Ferrari 250P I do use clear sometimes. It depends on the car. On the real car the graphics would be a wrap . This one I will probably clear. The decals are a bit flat looking and I think some clear would give it the correct sheen. I can’t wait to see the 250.
