My two favorite builds from the late 80s (I was a teenager) were the Fujimi Ferrari Testarosa Koenig Twin Turbo in 1/16 scale and the Fujimi Lamborghini Countach LP500S in 1/16 scale. The detail on this back then, in comparison to 1/24 or 1/25 models was absolutely amazing. Thank you for sharing.

Beautiful work - and for those dedicated modelers that haven't built a 1:8 yet, they are much more challenging than you would think!

Nice work Tom, you did the right thing airbrushing the interior and rims as now it looks much more better and realistic. Well done 👍🏼👍🏼

The thing I love about 1/8 partworks, is that there is the scope to go ham and modify the hell out of them.

3:14 the completed engine build is nice 11:38 the interior is also nice 17:16 like the real LaFerrari

Looks more like a snap kit, as no glue were used, but of course, plenty of screws were used. Gave you a LIKE! (It'll be great if you could put a 1/12 LaFerrari beside the 1/8 for comparison.)

I'm a huge fan of Agora Models and iXO Collections (not so much for Fanhome) and have built a total of 5 or 6 diecast metal model cars, kicking it up a notch adding modifications from Mike Lane and Model Modz. The electrics, as well as the metal working suspension, chassis, doors, windows, etc really attracts me to these builds.

I haven't ad a chance to watch your channel in a while and I am still impressed with your capabilities. Keep up the good work! And yes these may not meet some peoples price point (mine included) but the detail and finish of the kits is unmatched in my eyes! Thanks for sharing so I can watch since I cannot build one myself.

You've done a great job, I'm another one who thinks the red interior is to much and painting seat, dash ect..just a different shade of tan/camel color. Have to aske..what paint did you use on your brake discs to give them the used ceramic look? Did you have any issues getting the engine cover/bonnet to close the notorious gaps between the panels.keep up the great work!

Hey Man. I don't know if you have been to any of the IPMS shows. But I just went to one. I put mine in for judging. Now I DO not build junk. I put in my F4 U Corsair airplane and my Pontiac GTO. They did not even look at my stuff. That is because if you are not a member you will not even get judged or looked at. Their was a lot of people that were getting 2 and 3 medals. I thought I would tell you this in case you decided to go to one of their shows. They do have vendors selling nice models both military and cars. That was all that was good at that place. This was held in Havlock N.C. So just beware of these shows ok. Take care Sir.
