  1. One of the best kits of this car in any scale. Also recommend its partner, Johan's 500K Roadster Limousine hardtop coupe. I have lots of reference materials on these cars, so let me know if you need anything.

  2. Very attractive model; your work looks great, but something about the kit proportions looks a little off to my eye. This is by no means any reflection on YOUR work, though.

    The whole nose section in front of the wheels looks like it tilts up too much.

  3. Hi, all... I think this is what I was inspired by:

    I had the scheme in mind since the yellow failed, so I really can't remember what got me started...

    bestest,

    M.

    This one is very bizarre to me, never seen another exactly like it. Surely it's a 1966+ 275 GTB4 competiizione, but it appears to have more of a GTO nose treatment than others. EDIT: okay I found it. A 1964 GTB/C Speciale, one of 3 built.

  4. No decals. You can get some information on this kit from Harry P's book, page 57." Instead of trying to recreate the very thin dual black and red stripe look, I went with single, wide black stripes. I created all the stripes by masking the body panels with Scotch tape, and cutting the stripe shapes freehand with an X-acto. It wasn't easy to get the stripes perfect cutting the mask by hand, but I think I did pretty well."           Details on his build here:  http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/75837-1913-mercer-raceabout/
