I'm still in the process of finding the right color. But I'm not really sure yet.
The F1-75 looks a little different in every light. But that's no different with the Aston Martin, for example.
I made a mix myself, but this one is slightly darker. Yesterday this color looked ideal but they also drive at dusk in Abu Dhabi.

Beware, any object printed or on a screen is usually not color correct. Matching color is a big science. Even with equipment that measures colors, there are a lot of conditions to meet before a correct color can be determined.

That said, no body can really say your model color is off unless you put it next to the real thing under good light condition. Pick whatever you like and don't worry about it.

I've been thinking about it for several days now and my wife said the same thing. :lol: :lol:
You really saw again this weekend that it looks different at every time of the day.

Even with some finished models you can see the color differences due to different lighting.

I wonder if the fact that the cars are no longer glossy (unfortunately) makes the problem worse. Or not as bad?

@Thomas: which model is that on your table? It's looking very good. Is there a Sainz version also available?

It doesn't make it easy, I would say, because you can only sand it to a limited extent. At the end you need a finish with a semi gloss varnish.

It's the NewScratch 1/20 model - yes, you can also build the Sainz version. To be more precise, the Leclerc version is even more difficult because not all decals are included... :wink:
