Ferrari 126CK
Ferrari 126CK, 1/20 Fujimi kit, painted with Tamiya spray cans and acrylics/Humbrol enamel.
I added some detail, photo-etched bolts and nuts, Studio27 seatbels, wires, cables and other engine and mechanical details.
I hope you like it.
Pedro, Looks very nice, I really like that you added the markings on the tires ! When was the time period for this car ?
Hello Terry, thanks a lot!
This car was driven by Gilles Villeneuve in the 1981 F1 championship, the kit is the Spanish Gp version.

Stunning build AND photography, Pedro...good work all around. 🙂
Hi Craig, thanks a lot!

Hi Pedro, I haven't yet built any of Fujimi's F1 cars, only their 1/24 sports cars, but this one looks terrific, very neatly finished and detailed by you. Gilles is my favourite F1 driver of all time and would undoubtedly have been world champion but for that fateful accident at Zolder in qualifying for the Belgian GP... a huge pity.
Hello George, how are you doing?
The Fujimi F1 kits are very good, very detailed.
I am a G. Villeneuve fan too!

Very glamorous looking vehicle!
Hi Greg, thanks a lot!

VERY well done, Pedro! I like the chalk info on the tires. I've seen the same type markings on the tires (tyres) they use here in Indianapolis. These markings plus many other tiny bits of EXTRA realism are what we called in the Army 'Attention to detail.'
Bravo!
Hi Jeff, thanks a lot!

Superb finish. Very well done Pedro.
Hello Julian, how are you doing?
Thanks a lot!

Cracking job. Nice one Pedro.
Hi Anthony, thanks a lot!
Regards from Portugal!
Nice build mate, I love the tyres especially!
Hi Richard.
Thanks a lot!
Best regards from Portugal
I love that car, Pedro.
It was the first Ferrari of the Turbo age. Ferrari had hesitated too long to switch over to this technology with a V6 engine, maybe because the heritage of the company was so much based on their 12-Cylinders.
Apart from that really nice Fujimi kit in 1/20 there also is a 1/12 Portar which, however, seams not very high quality.
Hello Johannes, thanks a lot!
