Full Build - PZY Kitbox Ferrari SP3 Daytona 1/24 Scale

[@scaleffect]

That windshield looks tough, so many opportunities for a mistake, but your experience really showed and paid off clearly. I always prefer build videos to just recaps of the completed model. I learn a lot more by watching.

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

Thank you so much, I appreciate you leaving a comment like this. The windshield was a patience tester for sure! I will post more how-to’s in the future. Thanks for watching👍

[@barebonesgarage7624]

I was holding my breath for you on that window install. Looks amazing to say the least!

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

I was too Barebones! It worked and it’s still glued in place the next day. Thanks for watching and your kind words👍

[@georgegrant5093]

Love this format its not too long and you cover what you need to know

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

Thank you George! I appreciate your feedback and I’m glad that you enjoyed the video👍

Absolutely gorgeous build. You are a natural craftsman. Not for me but It’s entertaining to see you build it.

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

Thank you Eddie, I appreciate you watching and leaving me a comment. 👍

[@terryburton2238]

The terms "Awesome & Amazing" are often overused, but it this case they are not. Well done, you are a master craftsman

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

Thanks so much Terry, I am pushing myself to try harder and more difficult kits to broaden my skills. I appreciate you watching and supporting me and the channel.👍

[@Scalemodel_chris]

Beautiful build. Love the colour combo.. I like the video flow. Enough details and information. Something different to the normal and it worked well.

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

Thank you Chris, good luck in your YT journey. I enjoy chatting with you about these resin kits. Cheers, James

Wow, that was an excellent presentation of your build process. You had me sweating the details on the windshield installation, so your detail on those steps was appreciated. Quite the kit. thanks for sharing.

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

Thank you Wayne for your feedback. I too was a little concerned when it came time for the windshield. Thanks again for watching👍

[@nitroAl67]

James, great step by step! The car turned out amazing!!! Stunning ! Great color combination. The front windshield, I was a little nervous on that part, but it turned out great! Everything seemed to fit perfectly. Like when that happens. Al.

[@craigwhite5703]

Gorgeous build. Would like to see more of your painting techniques.

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

I can focus more on those types of videos in the future. Like my airbrush paint philosophy? Specs and measurements? Brands? techniques? Or all of the above?

[@craigwhite5703]

@@ScaleModelExperiment Am looking for brush techniques for starters. I will look at the posts you replied about. Thank you!

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

@craigwhite5703 I’m the last guy to ask about brush painting to be honest. I mask and airbrush everything.

[@craigwhite5703]

@@ScaleModelExperiment Thanks for the quick replies. I just got back into modeling again after dropping it when I was a teen. I've not yet bought an airbrush. Looking forward to your videos when I do.

@@ScaleModelExperiment no problem! I customize 1/43 scale modelcars myself and I am still hoping for resin kits like these will be made in scale 1/43 some day

[@madhatterstudios966]

Great colour choice! Way better than the usual red seen on Ferraris. I also like the format of this video, but as a suggestion, if you've already done an unboxing video, I personally don't see the need to re-do it at the beginning. That time could be better spent on other items of interest - like windscreen wiper construction :) I'd like to see you build that supercharged MR-2 I spied on the background shelf. No one ever does car videos on subjects like that - usually they keep going for the supercars ;) Anyways, I really enjoyed this build video and am looking forward to seeing more

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

Point taken Mad Hatter, I’ll keep that in mind. Once I get a few more kits done I’ll attack the more common car kits in my stash.

[@samuelvasquez8170]

Awesome build and the video was just perfect format

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

Thank you so much Samuel, I appreciate your feedback and support.👍

[@wiggokarlsen2976]

Great build, Sir!! I think the format of this video is great, beginning to end style, unpacking to finished model. Interesting for old people like me, who have never been even close to a resin kit, but slowly starting to consider it. I think videos like this are increasing the interest for resin kits, showing that they are not that much different to build than plastic kits after all. Seven weeks of hard work and dedication, nice job, James!!

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

Thank you Wiggo, these high end resin kits really aren’t bad to build. You just have plan ahead only do things once if you can. Nothing worse than airbrushing 1 piece because you forgot about it.

[@ScaleAutoGarage]

Amazing build sir. Love the color choices. All that carbon fiber! Yikes. I like how you really showed doing the windshield. I was super curious as I knew it was a crazy curve and those glad glass stuff is a nightmare. Stunning build.

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

Thank you Spencer, I’m glad that you enjoyed the video. The carbon itself took me a week to apply to all of the pieces. The windshield actually turned out better than expected. I was expecting it to pop right off. I appreciate your support my brother 😎

[@kenacosta9824]

Wonderful build sir, and well-done video! Enjoyed every minute. At 7:14, you say that you used “steel colored paint” on the wheels. Would you mind sharing what brand? The wheels look terrific!

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

Hi Ken, thanks for watching. Model Car World MCW has a line of lacquer paints I use often. I use their bare metal, steel and 20% flat clear. The wheels are that steel.

[@JDsHouseofHobbies]

It reminds me of the Mach 5. Those kits are waaaay above my pay scale! lol

Hi JD, they are amazing kits to work with. So much detail but yet simple at the same time. Thanks for watching 👍

Nice

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

Thank you Kevin for watching👍

[@lucamicalicapparelli4825]

Hi, nice work! Am I wrong or you don't show how you put the decals and the clear coat on top, right? I saw that you first applied two coats of 2K clear coat, do you use it as a base for the decals? I would like to know what type and brand of paints you use for primer, basecoat and 2K paint. Thank you.

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

Hi, thanks for watching the video. I like to apply decals over basecoat and then clear over the decals. For that car I used a custom mix of Tamiya LP white mixed with Tamiya LP white pearl. It’s a very subtle pearl white. I currently use 2k from Spraygunner.com no-name brand.

[@Triplegix]

Great video, love the kit! I think of bying it, i see in local(ish) store 4 in stock ;) Just a question: do you build several models at the same time (while paint is drying or so of other car)? :D

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

I recommend the PZY version of this kit. I try to work on just one at a time. This one took about 6 weeks to finish. Which is 2 weeks longer than normal for me.

[@bobbyosborne2375]

Price? Where to buy?

[@viper29ca]

At $250US.....as much as I would like new Ferraris, that takes it well out of my budget.

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

That seems inflated. Hobby Easy I has them for $151.10 USD. www.hobbyeasy.com/?t=1720985919

[@viper29ca]

@@ScaleModelExperiment I just did a quick search, Scale Riders are $250US, place here in Canada is considerably cheaper at $240CDN so about the same price as Hobby Easy is after shipping and exchange on the $$$$. Still out of my price range.
