2003 Bentley Speed 8

Hi,

 

Great and beautiful progress as usual!

Your paint is really nice too and it will, for sure(!), be a contest winner!

Can’t wait to see more.  

Talking about MFH big scale kits, I recently received one of my all time favorite Roaring Beauty: the Ferrari 333SP! Awesome kit!

A 206SP, 212 E Montagna… or a big McLaren M8 CanAm would be soooo cool!!

 

Great job once again!

I'd love a Lola t70, love watching them in Masters Endurance races here in Europe. Can only imagine a can am race with lots of them

So today I didn’t do a lot to the speed 8 , but what I did do makes me super happy. I was a little nervous, but after some patience I can’t stop geeking over this. So those of you that know about model factory hiro kits sometimes the resin parts need some massaging to get the gaps to line up. In this case the front cover didn’t sit square and was pretty warped. So I took some tape and got the part where I wanted it to be, took my heat gun and warmed the part up until everything just laid into place with some pressure with my hand.

thanks for enjoying this ride still more to do before I call it done

Wow Chris! Crazy looking beautiful race car. Possibly the last beautiful prototype (don't like today's cars)

Your scale model of this beautiful car is a masterpiece. I love watching masters like you build these incredibly complicated MFH kits.

I salute you!

Agree with Pierre about last of the good looking prototypes, Aston wasn't a bad looker

Lovely finished model Chris. I have been following your build and you have done a superb job on this build.

James, you mentioned that you would like a Lola T70. I can remember Tamiya doing a kit of a Lola in 1/12th scale a number of years ago. Not sure if it was a T70 or not, but might be worth a web search. I think there is a build thread somewhere by Mark Jones.

Thanks for the kind words. Actually I’m not done with this yet, still more to do.

I do remember that Tamiya has done a T70, I was wishing MFH would take a crack at one?
