Hi all,
Welcome to my build log of Fujimi's 1/24 scale Ferrari F40 LeMans.
I'm primarily starting this blog to get as much help as I can. This is my first car build ever, besides for a few Revell "Snap-Tite" kits I did as a kid. I do armor and aircraft almost exclusively, so in many ways I "don't know what I don't know" regarding car modeling. (Take a look at my photos to see what I have done in the past.)
This is actually something of a commission build—I am going to be modifying the kit to represent an F40LM as raced by my friend and former racer Roland Linder. This will entail creating my own decals, modifying the car's body, and other things for which I'm not exactly qualified! :)
So....if you have <i>anything</i> to add, speak up. I'll need all the help I can get!
Here's the kit I'll be using....
And here's the car I'm representing (there will be a few minor changes from the picture, since the car changed a lot).
Thanks in advance...
