Fiat Abarth (new)
I thought that a nice companion to the old Fiat Abarth I built in 2009, I would do the new Fujimi Abarth.  I decided to do it in a
different colour scheme than the original.  I was also inspired by a 'Made in Europe' car theme award at Heritagecon 5 in Hamilton.  
I did have trouble with the decals as they are very thin.

Base Kit(s):   Fujimi 1:24 Fiat Abarth

Finished:        March 2011

Modifications/Additions:
- Hobby Design photoetch set - emblems, grills, wipers, mirrors, etc.
- silver coloured paper placed behind front grill so that the photoetch pieces would show up.
- Replicas and Miniatures tire valves
- paint is Tamiya Racing White on body, Tamiya acrylics elsewhere.
