Completed Fujimi F355 Berlinetta........

Well iv'e finally got this one done, bought it from an AF member a while back so its been lying around for a few months. Anyway got it going & here it is finished. The color is maroon, two wetcoats at the end gave it a nice shine. I was debating the rims for ages but decided on the stock ones in the end. The seats, steering wheel & wing mirrors are from a Tamiya Modena Spyder. Ive used some parts from an Acu-Stion mechanical parts set (loads of bits left but couldnt be bothered)
Thanks for looking, Mike :sunglasse

It looks great. Very nice shine. How's the back?

What a gorgeous car!

superchoice of colour, and of model, I like the mirrors a lot too, very subtle changes, and surely one of the more exiting finished models I ve seen lately, I love it

Shiny !
How was the kit to build ?

Hi,

great model, nice finish !!!

(I have the Scale Production transkit for the Daytona version.)

Nice color. It gives the car a very classy look.

Great work overall. This is not an easy kit to build, and you've made it look very good..

:sunglasse :sunglasse :sunglasse

I'll warn you ahead of time, I will be building the identical model :evillol: .

The local Ferrari dealer had an F355 Berlinetta in this exact same color scheme for about a year...dark red w/honey-colored leather interior. I drooled over it in the showroom. I saw it on a test drive the local "autobahn" known as GA 400...and it looked killer out on the road.

I've been planning on building one just like it-and you have built one just like it. You chose an awesome color combo for this car, very classy and very sexy. :smile:

love the color! nice build

That looks good Mike!
I must admit that it sounded a bit strange with maroon on such a modern Ferrari. I stand corrected, it looks very nice indeed!
Got some touch up paint for you waiting to gas out properly before sending it.

Very Nice paint.

Beautiful work as usual!!:sunglasse

Stunning as always Mike

Your models just keep getting better and better! That is spectacular! I can't wait to see whats next from you:)

Real nice and clean! If I'm not mistaken, the real Ferrari dark red color's name is Rosso Barchetta.

Nice one Mike. Looks fantastic.

Very attractive. And nice to see a Ferrari that doesn´t sport red or yellow :) It´s maroon is subtle but yet it stands out from the above mentioned "standard" Ferarri colors!

awesome ferrari, color wheels and perfect paint make it really stand out

Nice work Mike. I love the color!!

Looks stunning - could be the real car!

I think that looks better than any Fujimi Ferrari 355 I've seen on here and I think part of the reason is that the dark colour hides Fujimi's inaccuracies. You have done a very nice job on it though. Please can we see some pics of the rear?

That is a really nice build - love the colour too.
I also like the dynamic photography !!

I hope that mine comes out as sweet as yours when i decide to build it - well done

Thanks a lot guys. No........this is not an easy kit to build, especially the fitting of the windows as they are all seperate just like with the Tamiya Jag MK ll.
M4tt83 & Bas Carwash here are some pics of "the rear" as you requested.
