good evening guys
in 2012 where I live
came the earthquake ... some of my models have been damaged ..
Today I have "restored" these ..
and after I took these pictures ..
I've made so many years ago .. I used it as the starting body tamya
everything else is made from scratch ..

Wow, very nice models !!
If ever you're wondering what to release after the Celica, the S1 would be my choice !! :lol:

even if survived to a deadly Earthquake, this is way longer the nicest S1 I´ve seen around until today.... ;)

Although they have their defaults (the long Quattro and the S1 have different windscreens - shape, size, angle), the amount of work and skill put into these models is unbelievable ! I once saw a small picture of the San Remo rally car on the former Scuderia Italia website and felt so frustrated not to be able to see more of your stuff. So today I feel happy :biggrin:
I am sure you have other hidden treasures to share...:grinyes:

Thanks guys ... you are too good!
as chris says .. the wiendscreens has different angle ..
at that time without internet and with little documentation I have not noticed ....
when I started to buy books and collect documentation I noticed the error ... and I wanted to break the model!:banghead:
but I want to see the improvements that I have done with the time ..
these two models will build them again ... and this time correct..:iceslolan
but first I have to finish the celica ..
...and other work initiated!!

thanks again guys ...

Sincerely, windscreen angle correction lack, it's not shoking me. Model seem better than Profil24 one which probably has the correct angle but seems totaly deformed and crused on its wheels...
Wouldn't you consider ScaleProduction Sport quattro as a base to build the S1 if you remake it ? It's probably the best base.

Amazing work,

You really have taken the time.

Incredibly well done,

Luca,

How can you reproduce the intercooler and Intake weld lines?

Amazing work!

Thanks for presenting these nice models. It's a pleasure to look at.

That is one brillant work!!
Just one thing is strange to me, I might be wrong, though:
The "Sabelt" decals on the seatbelts, shouldn't you be able to read them from top to bottom?
Otherwise everything looks really great, would love to have those here :D

I have the TKIT of scaleproduction ..
is excellent .... and as a base is great ... I would like to accomplish in the future kits these two cars ...
but first I have a lot of work to finish ... I will show you ....:grinyes:Luca,

Carlos:
for the Intake weld lines I used thin sprue and engraved with an engraver
.. the radiator is a bit complex ... I should explain with pictures .. when I will fulfill same one will ..

ferrari2k:
I remember when I made the model I looked at some pictures of that race upward newspapers in a photo .. and you could see the words "sablet" turn as opposed...

thanks to all guys

Thanks for the explanation Luca! I try to make the same at 1/12 Ferrari 312T exhaust system and oil pan. I am waiting for the tutorial for radiator weld lines! :)
