First 1/43 kit finished.

Post by lala40l »

My fisrt 1/43 kit. Was really a joy to work on. Next one will be a bit more challenging, as this was a relative easy build. Think I am hooked to 1/43 (which is much better for my wallet and space)

Very nice build and great paint job, looking great! :)
I wish there would be more 1:43 builds, no other scale offers so much model kits, keep it coming!
Take a stand!

Welcome to "Smallville"! The world of 1/43 is a fun place to be. Provides some different challenges but definitely rewarding. Your build is really nice. Looks very clean and details look great. Awesome job!

very nicely done - great paint finish!

Any background on the car, driver, race? Don't see many deep blue ferraris!

This supposed to be the Ferrari 121 LM Scaglietta as raced in Palm Springs 1955. Think it was a private entry that's why the blue.
