Look forward to this one Chris. So many beautiful Ferraris in the 50's and 60's and this one may be at the top of the list.
You plan to model this before or after the crash? Just saying... you know, for a bit of challenge. 😃
I plan on going for the fresh off the line look.. As if these kits aren’t enough of a challenge 🤪

The Ferrari was fastest in training. it therefore started last in the race and took the lead on the first lap, but was eliminated due to an accident on the second lap. I`ll follow this interesting build.
I saw this photo looking for reference photos and wondered the story behind it..
Thanks for that!

Next up on the bench of mayhem.
1/12 Model Factory Hiro Ferrari 330P4 Spider. I will be trying to recreate the version that race in the Targa Florio. As from my knowledge and some reference photos this particular car did not finish the event.
I hope you enjoy the journey with me 😉

Just completed the Model Factory Hiro 1/12 scale 2017 Ford GT.
This is a curbside kit, I will have to say this was as much of a journey as if I was building a full detail kit.
hope you like-

Hi Pierre, I have found on model factory hiro resin a dip into hot water allows the resin to soften enough to bend.

I find if you give the resin a (polident) bath, it cleans the parts well of the release agent. Yes polident for dentures 😉

Nice finish Chris, very well done👍
Are any of the body panels removable? There is so much detail hidden.
Yes, the rear deck and front cover.
Check out the WIP thread I have a bunch pictures 😉😊 -
