fet_thunderdome Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 (edited) Hi everyone, I introduced myself few days ago as a newbie. This is my seventh build in total. This is a Aoshima kit with Studio27 carbon fiber decal set and hobby design detail up kit. I always liked this car and this livery, which is painted with zero paints gulf Color set and 2k diamond gloss finish. Thanks all Edited September 12, 2018 by fet_thunderdome 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spiny Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Great model, particularly since you've still got quite a short track record. I hope you're pleased with it because I would be if it were mine. If I could offer one piece of advice regarding the photos (and don't get me wrong, they are good too), if your camera allows, close the aperture as tight as you can (higher f-stop) as it will give a greater depth of field and should keep the whole car in focus. You will probably need either a lot of light or a tripod though as this will increase the exposure time compared to the standard setting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to tell you though that I used to work as a professional photographer (Motorsport) but I am no more, and I sold all the equipment, so I have to arrange myself with cell phone.😂 So no possibility to play with lot of DoF unfortunately, but I really appreciate your piece of advice. 49 minutes ago, galaxyg said: Looks fantastic.

kapam Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Stunning! I've always thought the Gulf Oil liveries (any era) to be among the best in racing. Your work beautifully replicates a classic looking race. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually working on a 956 Porsche winner from 1983, with Rothmans livery and yes, there are some iconic liveries and color schemes which are immortal and trascend time! Rothmans, Marlboro, Martini, Gulf, Castrol to name few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill.B Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 This was a colour scheme I always wanted to do, but so far I’ve chickened out! Anyway, you’ve done an excellent job! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
