So looking back and finding my blog again, I didn't realize it has been 5 years since my last post, and decided that I have plenty that I have built and might be time to work at sharing some of my builds again.
This is a Tamiya Ferrari 360 Spyder.
I love the looks of a Ferrari, but decided I wanted to do this one in something other than RED.
This is a bit older kit, but still shows all the great attention to detail that you would come to expect in a kit from Tamiya.
The top is a separate piece and can be removed to show off the interior. I painted the top with a dark blue... but didn't like the way it turned out. So I used a can of Tamiya "Smoke" which is a transparent grey color (think a window tint) and sprayed that from a distance. It gave a speckled or mottled effect which looks more convincing as a cloth top, than just plain dark blue.
From the rear you get a good view of the nice looking Ferrari V8 in the back under the clear cover.
I was very happy with the way that this one turned out, and would gladly consider doing another one of these for the collection.
Stay tuned, I have lots more that I have finished in the past 5 years, and hope to be inspired to show some more soon!
Glad to see you're back to building
