First released in 1987, the Monogram Ferrari Testarossa has been reissued several times. The Miami Vice releases are molded in white plastic, but the kit has also been issued in red and in yellow plastic. Obviously, if you're building Detective Sonny Crockett's car from the TV show, the white car is the one to get. All releases include the same parts - although the kit was also released as a convertible with the appropriate engine cover and body modifications.
This particular kit is another kit gifted to me by my brother-in-law (thanks, David!). The kit was built straight from the box. I used Tamiya white primer, followed by Testor's One Coat Lacquer. All trim and interior work is Tamiya acrylic, thinned and airbrushed with my trusty ol' Badger 150 dual-action airbrush. |
