Nothing tops a well-built Model Factory Hiro kit and you really did this one justice. The weathering that you did on the seats and head rest is incredible, how’d do it?

I read that the fellow that owned/ ran MFH recently passed away (sadly at a relatively young age), wonder if this company will continue their operation?

PS - here’s a link that was posted on this forum

Absolutely stunning! Not exactly sure about the logic behind putting the battery & a fuel tank(?) in the passenger door, but I guess you've got to put it somewhere.

The seats are decals (not very well arranged...), and everything is sprayed with matte clear, and soiled with artist oils and Tamiya powders :)

 

MFH is now run by Kyoko Hiro, the widow of the late Mr. Hiro.

This is a stunning model. The level of detailing and finishes are amazing resulting in "through the roof" realism.

Did you add a lot components to this model or is it all included in the MFH kit. Lots of very detailed elements on that beautiful replica.

Another excellent model from the Tomasz classic car stable!

I like the way in which the model was photographed too.

The car was raced with one person. I think the idea was to balance the weight of the left and right sides.

Wow, the MFH kit has a lot of nice features and your building skills really make them stand out on this beautiful build. Congratulations on a stunning model.
