Revell 1/24 Ferrari F430

Post by eoinfinnegan »

I finished this earlier today, Its a nice kit with no flash or heavy seam lines. It aint as sharp at a tamiya kit but I goes togethere well.
When it came to painting it I didnt want to go with the normal boring Ferrari Red so I searched the web to see what other colours it came in and I came across this beauty

So with this build I decided to go out of my comfort zone and use Enamel paints on the car body, for the black I went with Revell no.9 Anthrecite thinned with white spirits and it sprayed like a dream for the orange I went with Humbrol no.18 orange..I dont no what I was thinking :scratch:: it was almost transparent so I first spreyed the areas with Tamiya Orange acrylic then went over it with the Humbrol Enamel, im happy with how it turned out, Except for forgetting to paint on the side indicator...I always forget something :bash: Il have to do it later

Here she is, I hope you guys like her
