Re: Ferrari 641/2

The brakes, wheels and tires look outstanding. I think the high quality photography really contributes.

Re: Ferrari 641/2

Stunning work! I almost hate to mention this, but I got dinged by a fellow modeler for making the same mistake, so maybe you can file this away for future projects. The valve stems on the wheels are in the wrong place - they should be pointing out, not towards the center. Here's a picture that shows what I mean. I was a bit surprised to discover that this is true for almost all automotive wheels; only motorcycles seem to have valve stems pointing towards the center.
