Decided to post progress on a long time project of mine. This is my Tamiya 360 Modena. One of my favorite Ferrari designs ever.

Engine is painted with MM aluminum metalizer over duplicolor primer sprayed at a distance to simulate texture. It was then washed with oil paints. Valve covers and other accessory bits were painted with Vallejo spray can silver and lightly washed with Vallejo black acrylic. Debating on wiring the coil packs but they really aren’t that visible.

It's a beatiful kit, and your flocking and body paint look excellent!

Thank you! It truly is. It's definitely one of the better engineered kits in Tamiya's catalog. It also looks truly great just box stock.
