Rich Chernosky Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Just off the workbench. Tamiya 1/20 Ferrari F60 formula one. Mostly box stock some extgra decals from Tabu. Paint is Gravity colors GC 294Ferrari Nuovo Rosso. This is a 3 part system consisting of a silver basecoat, clear red color coat and clear to finish. Iniatially this came out a little too orange to suit my taste so I mixed in some Tamiya clear red to the clear top coat. This kit went together like a dream with only a slight adjustment necessary to the center body panel behind the roll bar. Everything snapped snugly into place after that. Body fit was amazing. Thanks for looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belugawrx Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Nice job on that Rich ! All of the purpose designed barge boards, wing fingers, and wheel scoops are well represented on this one. Well done,...Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Chernosky Posted February 19, 2019 Author Share Posted February 19, 2019 Thanks Bruce....I was amazed at how many there were. A lot of fussy fiddling to get them all on and straight looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim N Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Great job! All of those aero pieces look like they would have been a challenge to put on the model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Mario Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 Agree the paint job is amazing and color looks like it matches perfectly. Do you plan to do the SF70H? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gramps46 Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 How did I miss this till now, the Ferrari is outstanding. I like how you sanded the tires and added some debris, very realistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you sand the rubber tire it attracts dust and dirt like a magnet. Despite my best efforts to keep them clean some still remained.

Gramps46 Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 I was serious Rich, I think the debris is very appropriate as the 1:1 tires are sticky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turberticus Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Looks great! I really enjoyed building this kit. Went together beautifully. I used TS-85 Mica Red, but this paint looks better! Good job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used TS-85 Mica Red, but this paint looks better! Good job! TS-85 was formulated to reproduce this color. I have used that in combination with TS-74 clear red over Pactra Antique Gold. Did it on a La Ferrari to see how it looked and it wasn't quite what i wanted for the F1 car. It was a nice red though. On line pictures of the real car don't really show the color good enough. I am told it is a pearlescent red. Pearlescents use a silver base and it is difficult under clear red. I am still trying to make myself happy on this color.
