360 Spider (first pics)
Well started work today on the spider. Seeing as I am not using the optional top I used that to test what the Deep Metallic Blue would look like on the finished product.
Using a grey primed base the blue comes out extremely dark (almost black looking in photos). I may try part with a silver base over the primer to see how that comes out. |

The paint mix for the Beige leather interior as stated in the instructions was to be 1 part X-6 (orange) to 10 parts XF-15 (flat flesh) but this came out a bit too orange for my likeing so I added a bit more XF-15.
(ratio approaching 1 X-6 : 12 XF-15) It may have been because my measuring was basically estimated as I didn't have any proper measuring device (I used straws ) Here is what it looks like on the inital coat on the doors I'm happy with the way they are going at this early stage |

I don't think it is a factory colour, I just saw the colour and thought that it would look good on a Ferrari instead of the common reds, silvers and yellows.
They were released in silver, red, yellow, blue, green, black, and white. With the main interiors being black and beige. |

No, you are right Alex, you can have any Ferrari in any colour, and the blue will look great, so stick with it!!!!
Be careful with glueing all the bits on the body, they all need panel lines so don't fill them with glue! But the front vents need filling by the front wheels! Looking forward to seeing this one! I still haven't decided on a colour for mine!!! |

So, does anyone know where I can get detailed engine pictures of this car? I am about to start mine and want it to be as accurate as possible. Does the carpet always match the exterior of the car?
