Tamiya Ferrari F50

[majel]

Started an F50, haven't gotten very far, and with my glacial building speed this is going to be a long build.  These pictures are of the Crazy Modeler photo etch pieces I have put together so far.  I have never tried to put more than a few PE pieces on a model before so this has been quite a stretch for me, and my inexperience shows.  Each brake rotor consists of 26 PE pieces, the fans are made up of five pieces each.  These are the before paint pictures, hopefully I don't lose a bunch of detail once painted.

The Hardest part of that Crazy Modeler set is the rear mesh & having to cut away the brittle clear plastic. bend the PE mesh first, then cut out the mesh from the clear plastic piece.

i admire your patience, the consolation is that the results will be spectacular .
