Almost 6 months later - Revell Ferrari Enzo

Wow! Has it really been 6 months since my last post?
I would guess that might mean that I have been busy, which I have, and have several completed models as a backlog that I will work on getting posted.
The first one up is Revell's Ferrari Enzo....
Mainly because I have the most "in progress pictures" for this one.

I picked this kit up for a pretty good price, and planned to do a comparison against the Tamiya kit of the same vehicle. While probably not a fair comparison given the many differences, I was quite pleased with the outcome.

Here are the contents of the box. All molded in a neutral white color, with the exception of some clear parts and red parts. There is also a small number of chrome plated parts.
Construction begins, like most kits with the engine.

Not really a lot to see here... but the next picture I have shows the power plant much farther along.

It all fit together well to this point, and some small detail painting, and various shades of silver and black help create the mult-piece look.

And here is the completed engine, along with the rear suspension and driveline all attached to the chassis.

The next picture I have taken is clearly much farther along in the assembly.
The front suspension is hung on the chassis, and the interior tub, seats, and dash is all in place.

So these are the last of the pictures I have that I "found" on my camera.

Which leaves me wit the pictures I just took of the completed kit as it sits in my display case.

I chose to paint the exterior white after some internet surfing, and felt that it added to the clean, modern shape of the car.
Evident here are a few small pieces I have left off, such as inside the engine vents, just behind the doors.

Unlike the Tamiya version, the doors and trunk area (in the front) do not open on this finished model.

The rear engine cover does however open, and causes it to not quite close flush. I didn't have anything for a "prop-rod" to display the cover in the open position.

All in all, as I mentioned, I was quite surprised at how well this kit came out. Everything fit together really well, and came together without any real issues. All the pieces were well molded and I had virtually no excessive flash to clean up.
The only thing I took issue with was the bright chrome of the wheels. I chose to dullcoat the chrome and got a result that appeared closer to the images I found on the internet.
I say GOOD JOB Revell, and will likely be looking for other releases in the future.

I have several more kits that I have finished over the past several months, and will work to get some photos of at least the finished kits to share.

Thank you as always for looking!
