TimJ Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Here's my first completed car model of this year, a Matchbox 1/32 Bugatti Type 59. A nice kit with a good level of detail for the size. I stripped most of the chrome parts and painted them silver or aluminium to give them more of a scale finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kratvmnd Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Nicely done. I have a couple of those kits(Bugatti and Alfa Romeo) and they do look like they would build up nicely for what they are. You've proven that here,it looks great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peekay Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Very nice little model! The chrome delete was a good idea, really adds to the realism.I've built a few from the series and think they were great kits. You'd probably like Tomy's (Japan) 1:32nd Jaguar SS100 too.

sjordan2 Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Great job on an unexpectedly well-done kit. Nice detail work and looks like you've done your homework on the car.Surprisingly, the 1/32 Pyro version, which can be built into the Rodney Clarke road car, is also quite nice. But the Minicraft engine is much better and the wheels are more accurate. Best of the bunch in 1/32 is the Southeastern Finecast T59, which is hard to find and very pricey.With a lot of work, including scratchbuilding parts and sanding off inaccuracies, the Bburago 1/18 diecast kit of the T59 (closer to 1/15, actually) can be very impressive.
