Tameo 1:43 Ferrari 156/85

[boxy but good]

Brilliant stuff.
Really enjoyed watching the build.
Are you going to show your colleagues the result ?

Brilliant build as usual, amazing how much can be done on such a small scale.
Looking forward to updates or a build thread on whatever you tackle next.

[Dinoboy]

Cracking build, just looks 'right'.

Thanks very much all - yes, I'll show my work colleauges the finished model. I'll post some pictures here in a minute.

So here are the finished pics. They seem to have become a bit blotchy during upload, but there we go.

































Thanks for looking!

ETA this is one with my old 1985 HiFi models version. I think there's been an improvement in both kits and building over the past 35 years?

Truly amazing.

I like the craftmanship and the fact that the detail at that scale is so high.

You, and Henry at equal measure have set a very high standard!

Thanks, yes these must be the benchmark kits at this scale, I can't think how Tameo could improve them significantly.

Great skills both the modelling and photography love watching your builds .

Amazing workmanship there and looks really stunning against the polished background. I hope this build hasn't affected your eyesight
to compromise your other projects. I have noticed having a bit of eyestrain myself if i spend more than 2 hours without a break

Thanks Henry, much appreciated. I've given up, and use magnifying glasses for small stuff now. It's near point getting too far away that makes close-up stuff impossible these days. In some ways it's better becasue it shows up even more detail than with my younger, un-compensated vision.

Thanks! Didn’t notice that - long story, but Facebook can be pretty amazing...

[Murph7355]

Stunning.

[Skii]

That is an absolute jewel.

Amazing job.

Thanks guys - I think I might treat myself to the Tameo Ferrari 312 T4 for Christmas. It’s got a bit more chassis and engine detail.
