I loved that movie as a kid! Fantastic work!

Neil
Hi Andrew 🙂 Yes! I'm with Robert! 👍 East bound and down, loaded up and truckin'... We gonna do what they say can't be done. We've got a long way to go, and a short time to get there... I'm east bound, just watch ol' "Bandit" run! What a great model and what a great movie(s). Still! 😉

The added famous driver is pretty neat!

@Neil, thanks, I will be singing that all day now. I agree about the movies being very watchable.
@Christian W I am really pleased how he came out. I should have taken some of his seat base away to make him lower in the car. I had to cut his head off and have him looking left so his hat would fit but I like to think it gives him a cheeky Bandit glance look so I am happy in the end

F40? Watching 😉

Love that color! Generaly I like not-red-Ferrari. I did mine blue too. But like that dark blue from Great Britain (1987 Ferrari F-40, Revell #7327 | Album by christian-w (1:24))

Welcome @DerMattes,
@Christian W I do not build many cars but am getting more into them now. I have 2 Ferraris built, one white and one blue and this one on the go. I wonder how many more I can make before I do a red one?
I like the stripe on yours, thanks for sharing

Christian W
Thank you for the like!
I did some Ferrari in my younger years. They all were red. The last maybe 10 years I've built at least 3 Ferrari and none is red. This blue F440, a pink 360 Modena and a brownmetallic'ish 348 ts. They look not bad at all.
What's on my list is the 328 in nearly the same color your F-40 is. This color looks fantastic on your Ferrari and I can imadine, that it's fine on the 328.
Because of red Ferrari. For my taste, there are just a handful of Ferrari, which "has to be mostly red": 328 and 288 GTO. Nevertheless, a white 288 looks georgeous or an anthrazite 328, or silver... Great colors for them. On my point of view, especial the metallic colors brings their body design out properly.

I'm on to watch your F-40 beeing built.

The mud splatter really sells it. Amazing!!

Andrew dyson
Thanks all. @nikfrost to get the mudsplatter I turned the pressure down low on my airbrush and using Vallejo model air dark earth paint stabbed at the airbrush trigger from below. This gave a nice splatter effect and was quite controllable. The key was to just use almost a flicking motion on the trigger. Hope that makes sense?
