Yea i agree with ya. Its should be lower and the rear wheels should be deeper in i was unhappy with that too when i first saw after fixing the body on, but its too late. For this i didnt really test fit the wheels with the body on. but i guess i will need to rework the rear suspension if i were to get another 250 TR next time! anyway thanks for the comment!

Re: Ferrari 250 TestaRossa!

Looks great. I checked my reference photos and the rear wheels are fine for a 1:1, but would look better higher in the wheel openings on a model

Hi, i dont really understand the part of 'higher in the wheel openings on a model'. But i guess its the same issue that i have mentioned on the previous post. If so, i will agree with you that it should be deeper and maybe a little higher. Because i checked with my pics, im convinced the problem lies with its too 'out' with the left rear wheels. But i guess i will only alter that problem if i have a new TR in the future.. haha.. Well, thanks for the comment and i really appreciate it.

Re: Ferrari 250 TestaRossa!

Paint job looks awesome, nice deep red. Only thing I donŽt really like is the wheels and their position (left front seems to "lean" and the rear are a little out of "line"-position).
Yours is the first here and IŽll keep your pics as reference for mine. All in all: Great work.

Thanks for the comments.! Well, it seems the wheels are really a big issue here and i think im going to solve it soon. haha. Anyway once again, i agree totally with the rear wheels position, but honestly if this is meant to be a OOB built, it will have the problem of height positioning of the rear wheels as i have checked with the pics built by Hasegawa. Or maybe because i've used technomodel wheels which makes it a little out of 'line', that im not too sure. As for the front wheels, its because when i took the pics, i didnt realise the left front brake disc came off and therefore results in the 'lean', i'll show you the fixed left front wheel in the pics below. But whatever the case im going to fix the rear wheels soon once i get back to Singapore. For the moment, please enjoy some pics i have took during the day.!










thanks!
