Scale-Master Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Starter 1/43rd resin kit. Not without its little quirks and problems, but a fun build of an iconic car; and one of my favorites. WIP Thread: 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoom Zoom Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Nice work! I can only fathom how difficult for me building to this level in 1/43 would be, as I stick to larger scales...perhaps out of necessity 🤔🤫 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rattlecan Dan Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 That's just a beautiful little build. Great work. Thanks for posting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierre Rivard Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Beautiful Mark, as all your builds are. It's great to see well researched and fabricated replicas at 1/43 scale, not too many to marvel at in a world of 1/24 and 1/12 scale. Keep them coming sir, they are wonderful! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cifenet Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 1/43 scale isn’t easy, but you did an awesome job making it look proper and clean. I really like how sharp your panel lines are, they can’t be too thick and rough for 1/43 scale subjects, and you nailed them! Good work! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan31 Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Beautiful job on that Porsche Mark, glad you went with the headlights and not covered over. One of my all-time favorites. I did a painting of that car posted in the "Auto Art" forum. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1959scudetto Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Very nice model in a great-looking livery, Mark! Unbelievable your 1/43 models (I tried some about 25 years ago, but gave up very soon and did not finish any - too small and fiddly for me) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drodg Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 I love this. I have built my share of Starter kits and they do have their quirks. Great job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen a lot of 1/43 scale models that had panel lines which are way out of proportion, even before anyone scribed them. Maybe that's one of the things that explains the huge price differences for models in that particular scale. Your build is looking just great!
