'Special' decals for 1:12 MFH F2003GA

Post by Flemming »

Hi

I know that there was a discussion about the design of the M@r!b*r* decals in the recently released MFH F2003GA 1:12 proportion kit - but I can't seem to find it?

Anyway MFH has redesigned that part and a new set can be requested at their website.

I requested the decals back when they were announced and haven't received them yet. I sent them a message last week to see if I could get info on when they would be available but have not heard back. I began the kit and am at the point I need the decals, it would be nice to get them.

I've just received the redesigned decals. I didn't get a shipping notice or anything. They just arrived in the mail.

What is the change exactly? Is it the pixel shading on the M logos, or shape of them, etc.?

As someone that has made this same decals also to be sold with the MFH kits I can tell. The good ones have a complex amount of shadows, flashes and reflection to make them look as bold 3D shinny volume letters.
To be honest, Ferrari started 2003 season with solid black letters and introduced “3D” somewhere mid season. Even more 3D ones were used in 2004. Ah! Shadow of nose white letters were not black but a creamy thing
