Ferrari F-2003 GA - Revell
Hi All, thanks for letting me join this awesome modelling community.
This was my first model I built, started at the beginning of 2021. Learnt a ton, handprinted this one as I didn't have an airbrush.
Really enjoyed it and was nice to get into the hobby - think the last time I built a model was in the early 90's, when I was a kid.
4 additional images. Click to enlarge.

Welcome back...nice work, especially a hand painted finish, hard to do right.

Thanks Eric, yeah really hard, especially when you are so inexperienced you don't even know you need to thin them haha.
Turned out ok, now on bigger areas airbrush is the way. I mislabelled it - It's the Revell F2003 GA, must fix that.

Very nice. We need more car models submitted on iModeler! Glad you posted that. Is this the Tamiya kit?

Nice work on this, it's always good to see a car posted here, especially when it's a Ferrari. I see that Tamiya have deleted all Ferrari models from their on-line catalogue, let's hope that Revell keep up the good work. Definitely liked.
Anthony Ricco said on July 1, 2021
Thanks George - yip has to be Ferrari haha. Thats a pity if Tamiya have stopped theirs, I hope there aren't licensing issues holding up the models getting made.
