Superb work Gio! I can cast the seats for you if you want - just send me the originals

Paint looks great, PE vents are a great idea!!, seat work super, engine to die for ..... Maestro!

Re: 360 Cs Blu Notte

Thanks guys.
As said I like to do seam on seats, so far this is the way I try: I print some thin (0.5mm wide) seam patterns on a decal's paper and... just some patient and good luck (and a good couple of tweezers).
Well I know seem a crap but it's extremely enlarged, from real it's ok, and it's the first one, at least.
Last treatment with flat clear and polishing for a "leather appeal"

Re: 360 Cs Blu Notte

I just print on the back of my monthly bank report ..

LOL not, printed on transparent. I'm also persuaded that transparent BMF decal's paper is much much better than white: the difference between 600 and 9600 dpi

Re: 360 Cs Blu Notte

Terrific work as always, Gio.

I love the stitch line decals- haven't ever seen that idea before! Maybe printed in a less stark color, like medium or dark grey they wouldn't stand out quite as much- but it's a really cool look, and idea.

Re: 360 Cs Blu Notte

Thanks guys, a little update after ages, I retake in hand my girl

Since I purchased the SAS basic 360 TK (and lately 19" wheels) now I've to do doors panels and consolle: carbon panels refs:



and close up to hinges:



I done the job by styrene layers, cutted and milled down:



Back side, with strip to achieve the width to install PE hinges



Dry mount (white putty) to check all, you'll see underpanel and PE (self-done) hinge



The carbon consolle ref.



and my styrene job: not really satisfacted but is really close:less than 20mm wide for white section



Thanks guys to follow this, soon with interior's finishing

ciao
gio
