Progress: 360 ModenaS-WRX 07-11-2004, 09:28 PM Hello again everyone, What a difference between Tamiya and Aoshima, the ferrari 360 tamiya seems effortless compared to my skyline build. At any rate, engine block, interior, and suspension is done; however, the body has been hell since I wanted to add a body kit.Finally after 2 different body kits, I settled with this. the two previous one was screwed up due to fitment issue, but this time it fits like a charm. Its been hard for me to try and mold a bodykit when the ferrari underbody fits just right above the front bumper. Well here are the pictures next to my previous skyline. http://files.automotiveforums.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=/502/196323Ferrari1-med.jpg http://files.automotiveforums.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=/502/196323Ferrari_2-med.jpg http://files.automotiveforums.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=/502/196323ferrari3-med.jpg ToyTundra 07-11-2004, 09:33 PM I'm surprised i like the body work on the 360. Keep up the good work S-WRX 07-11-2004, 09:38 PM oops, forgot to add. This is how I wanted the body kit to look like at first, but I decided to have more openings on the front to make it look more aggressive. enjoy! http://files.automotiveforums.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=/502/196323image1.jpg ol' dude 07-11-2004, 09:43 PM Looks to be a very promising build, keep us posted on the progress!!

Bas Carwash 07-12-2004, 12:05 PM Awesome looking. Must be one of the most beautifull 360's ever seen here :D Well, when it's finished as good as it looks now of course :iceslolan S-WRX 07-12-2004, 12:34 PM Thanks everyone! Im keeping my faith for this Modena even after 2 failed bodykits, I will post for more progress later on this week. CADguy 07-12-2004, 04:12 PM Nice work so far. I love the Volk rims on the 1:1 you posted above. Are you modifying the rear bumper also? S-WRX 07-12-2004, 06:19 PM volks racing wheels are awesome, but they are too expensive!! :( I will not be modifying the rear since I love the ferrari back just as it is. Maybe I might put a diffuser plate like in viper, but not sure if it will ruin the look on a ferrari. I'll settle with the bumper and sideskirts only :) s2peed13 07-12-2004, 08:42 PM I will watch this progres....... Nice one.... S-WRX 07-13-2004, 12:44 AM okie, here are some more pics after the body is primed for 100th times :) This one fortunately looks pretty good. http://files.automotiveforums.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=/502/196323ferrari_primed-med.jpg http://files.automotiveforums.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=/502/196323ferrari_primed_2-med.jpg S-WRX 07-13-2004, 01:53 AM godfather23 07-13-2004, 04:52 AM Nice project, you have going on there. Which color will the Agro 360 be in? S-WRX 07-19-2004, 12:17 AM Hello again fellow modelers, finally had the time to post pics of my progress. Here are 3 teaser pics of my current project Tamiya 360 Modenna fresh from the sink! Mods on the shell include: Lower front lip and sideskirts for both sides. No modification for the rear but I will put carbon fiber decals on the underbody panel. Bare in mind that this is only preliminary coats on the paint (4 light coats total). I will add another thicker coat tommorow, polish & wax and then add a coat or two of gunmetal paint. I did a test on a junk shell and this combination results in metal flakes gun-metallic color which is pretty cool :) Ofcourse, I'll add a few coats of clear as I progress. Enjoy! comments are welcome http://files.automotiveforums.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=/502/196323Silver-med.jpg http://files.automotiveforums.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=/502/196323silver2-med.jpg http://files.automotiveforums.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=/502/196323silver_3-med.jpg {(itchy)}{finger} 07-19-2004, 12:36 AM nice job, that under coat of silver looks like rust-o-leum silver metallic... wut silver is that? btw, hope it turns out perfect S-WRX 07-19-2004, 01:09 AM {(itchy)}{finger}: You got it right man! perfect guess thats awesome. My finish coat will be plasti-kote gunmetal paint and since this will only be a thin coat, I hope the paint will be ok when I use rubbing compound rx7king 07-19-2004, 01:34 AM thats simply amazing, hope it fturns out as great as it looks now Mean_B16 07-19-2004, 01:45 AM looking good, waiting on more progress now..... :smokin: pre98zetec 07-19-2004, 01:56 AM You should keep all progress in one thread, Anyway's look's great. thizishkenny 07-19-2004, 03:19 AM lookin good so far. I'm wondering how the paintjob will turn out hopefully nice. Orion37170 07-19-2004, 04:22 AM yes nice paintjob. but many threads for one model... maybe you should ask a mod to join them...would be much easier to follow your progress S-WRX 07-19-2004, 11:47 AM oops, sorry guys, next time I'll keep it under one thread. Thanks! supratuner 07-19-2004, 09:12 PM AS Mcdonalds says im loving it S-WRX 07-21-2004, 02:24 AM More progress = more pics :D :D Pictures taken without flash, no clear coat yet.
