  3. My next set from Model Factory Hiro. And the first of the C2 group. Lots of work, sweat, blood and tears ... But at the end it is a huge satisfaction.
  4. You did it? I'm in the process of collecting references to the DBR1 from Le Mans 1959. It is very difficult. Also in the field of car painting. At that time, each car could have been different and there was no documentation. Also missing from Aston Martin in 1959. Race photos are black and white or colored. For now, I know it could have been California Sage, or ... Almond Green, ... or something else The build has not started yet and I am already fighting ...
  5. My Ferrari D50 was linked up here so let me write something. I have been building MFH sets for some time. Actually everyone's galleries are here. These are models for someone who: You want to make them (I came back to modeling after 40 years of break), You want to learn (the break has done its job), You has a lot of time (they are labor-intensive and I'm almost retired), You has some money (they are not cheap). If you do, I can read a review from my latest Alfa P2 MFH gallery here: " Well its way better than heroine "
  6. My next MFH. I love this sets. The wallet is crying, but I think I'm too stupid to do something scratchy. Here I replaced all the rivets, made the seat upholstery and added some tubing. It is Giuseppe Campari's winning car from the 1924 French Grand Prix. Understandably, there weren't many exact reference photos ...
  7. Great !!! Amazing !
  8. A lovely car from a loved racing era. A very successful set of Model Factory Hiro. Master Club rivets, correct brake and fuel pipes, some cables and a stickers on the dashboard have been added. The rest from the box.
  9. Fantastic !!!!! I will imitate your weathering ?
  10. It's varied. Tamiya Motor Racing Tool Set, China and scratching. Everything weathered and with my decals Old Bentley from Airfix is very good base for upgrades closer to the original
  11. Another MFH completed ... somewhere on the side of the Nurburgring race track in 1957... 1/12
  12. Master ! Beautiful like all your previous ones
  13. This made it possible to lay the drive shaft diagonally. This placed it next to the driver's seat, not underneath it. The car was lower and had a lowered center of gravity.
  14. I'll always be behind you. Thanks for the kind words and advice so far
  15. Thank you. I see that I managed to hit with a thin cherry color of the upholstery I wonder about the black oval on the rear lower part of the engine. Tank? Cover?
  16. My second model of the Japanese manufacturer (Master?) Mr. Hiro. According to my preferences, it was again the windy racing car - Ferrari D50 in the 1956 Monaco Grand Prix (JM Fangio) markings. Ferrari took over this model from Lancia and made very few modifications. Lancia introduced a number of revolutionary F1 modifications with this model. Essential is the angled orientation of the v8 (Jano) engine and balancing the weight distribution with the installation of side fuel tanks. I just added rivets and some screws to what was in the box ... Brush painting and Tamiya and Humbrol sprays.
  17. Today the final gallery of my first MFH model. This is the winning Fangio car from the second Formula One season. 99% of the elements from the MFH factory set. VIDEO0052.mp4
  18. Very, very nice ! And amazing weathering ?
  19. Thomas, you can always enrich the set. Well ... And beautifully make it!
  20. Inspired by: I decided to make a version from the Polish Grand Prix in Lviv in 1932. Rudolf Caracciola then won on this car.
