Ferrari Red? is there such a colour
Posted by bigstuff on Monday, December 19, 2011 7:34 AM

Hope someone can help out here, I have decided to take a break from building airplanes..too much of a good thing I guess. I've decided to give car building a bash, specifically a number of 1/32 scale ferraris. First up is a 330 P4...There are a number of reds available off the shelf suitable for airbrush application. So the question is What is Ferrari Red? is it Revell? which seems a little maroon or is Humbrol?
Would appreciate any feedback / advice anyone may have...Thanks in advance...Paul

Tamyia makes it in spray bomb form...can be decanted and air brushed. Testors also makes an Italian red...which I suspect is the same color.

Thanks for coming back to me. Would you know if  the Tamiya colour is a close representation of ferrari at that scale. I was considering the Revell red but I'm not sure...Confused

Tamyia colors are usually pretty good.

Hi

Try Zero paints, they do a wide selection of Ferrari colour matched paints( such as the Rosso Corsa 300 which is a very common Ferrari red).

The Zero paints are available at Hiroboy.com.
