Wow, I am really impressed. Very, very well done. I don't think I could find a flaw if I tried.

Awesome!!!!! One of the greatest Ferrari I saw!! The finish is superb, very and nice built....

OMG! I lost myself in those reflections!!!
Excellent work!

That looks very beautiful! One of my favourite ferraris too~~ If you apply a little wash on the panel lines should make it better IMO~ ;-)

Oh man.. that is a beauty.

Pure modelling secks!!:sunglasse

Wonderful job :thumbsup:

Oh wow!
that looks just perfect!

Beautiful model of a beutiful car!!

Did you clearcoat the decals? I know this is a matter of personal preferences, but those roundels and numbers on early racing cars were not glossy as they were many times even painted with a brush. Makes the model look better though.

Perfect! Excelent photos, which lens did you use to take them?

Wonderful work!

Superb, fantastic pix too. The job on light and winsow surround should be hard in those kit, I guess. I'm also interested in knowing something more about photo set-up. Seem done outdoor but with also a spot.

Great model and wonderful execution. Only thing I´d change would be a little wash on the panel lines!

Gorgeous model Doug! Glad to see you here on A/F :sunglasse

Looks absolutely stunning! The reflections in the paint are awesome,it looks like glass.The assembly looks flawless.The lights and window frames in particular.Very nice model,well done all round on a great build.

Damn that is gorgeous. :D

That is wicked, clean and crisp. I agree some wash on the panel lines would step it up a little but that is gorgous as it sits!!

Thanks. The pics were taken inside on an overcast day in natural light. A 60 watt bulb was used in a few pics to light up those cool lookin wires that were in a shadow. Standard lens on an Olympus digital. I disagree with darkening panel lines. If you do it just right it looks OK, if not it looks terrible. They're just shadows and they show up naturally in some models anyway. I clear coat all decals because I like the effect. If this were 1:1 it would be all polished up in a collection just like it is as a model on my shelf. Most real race cars are dirty, smelly beasts with duct tape, battle scars and other signs of abuse.
