| Ferrari 312T4 Formula One race car This model was done to depict the car raced by Canadian driver Gilles Villeneuve. As this car was done quite a while ago, my painting skills were not too good - dust specks and a rough finish. In early 2006, I stripped off all the decals and paint. I glued some sheer curtain material on the underside of the body to simulate fiberglas. The body was repainted with Tamiya white primer, Italian Red and Clear, then polished and waxed. The car was entered into the GPMA Formula One challenge build, with a deadline of March 31, 2006 Base Kit(s): Tamiya 1/12 scale Ferrari 312T4 (kit number 12025) Finished: 1985, refinished March 2006 Modifications/Additions: Brake lines Additional electrical wiring Battery holder bracket and springs to hold exhaust pipes Awards: Canadian National Model Car Contest, Toronto, 1986, 3rd place competition >1/24 BuffCON 23, Buffalo, NY April 2006, 1st place, Automobiles > 1/24 scale Northstar Hobbies Model Contest, Mississauga ON, June 4, 2006, Gold Medal Automobile Racing MegaCity Madness, Toronto, Sept 2006, 1st place Large Scale Ajax XXVII, Ajax, ON, Oct 2006, 1st place Automobile Large Scale Heritagecon, Hamilton, ON, Feb 2007, 1st place Automobile - Competition, Open Wheel Click on Thumbnail to see detailed image.
