Yeah, all the good work clearly shows, outstanding!

If i might add one little comment what could be improved; maybe a tiny tiny line of black permanent marker on the front lightcovers would make a difference. Otherwise, A+ in my book :)

I did indeed think that but I looked at my sources also. The main photo I used was one from this:

I also looked after all of my research models. None seemed to have black edges. Who knows, lol.

I like it when a choice is based on real pictures! even better!

as you said, who knows :) worth the wait! What's cooking next?

Great work. I was going to say it needed a stripe or a number decal then saw the 1:1 car you were modeling it after. No need!

Looks really great! F430s have really caught me, despite myself. The Challenges are sexy and you've really captured the look with this one. The white paint choice is excellent! I can only say the PE used for the window.. vent.. things are a bit heavy handed (I believe they are plexi on the 1:1?), but otherwise, a gorgeous, fantastically detailed build. Thanks for sharing!

Outstanding work! I like white cars...

One thing, though: If it is a street car - shouldn't it have a license plate?

That's a very nice build!! The white paint works very well with the black wheels (I personally have a thing for lighter-colored cars with darker wheels :sunglasse) and brings the whole thing into a fantastic unison of Ferrariness! :sunglasse

Very nice, it deserve all the efforts, at last.

Cool, glad to hear you like it. What is next is either the 360 CS I need to do for the Ferrari 60th, or a 599 LM I have been thinking about lately?! Or, I might just finish the Jeep CJ-TJ conversion. Or I might try a Ducatti or,....... you get the idea. lol

Great work. I was going to say it needed a stripe or a number decal then saw the 1:1 car you were modeling it after. No need!

Well, I wouldn't say "modeling" it after, but the main idea for the build. I didn't want the typical Challenge.

beautiful work man, I love it....excellent detail throughout and it has a great "look" to it now thats its finished. Glad to see it done.

Gray

Thanks Gray, I agree, it does have it's own "look". So far I have never seen one like this let alone on the forums. That was my goal/hope for it.

Looks really great! F430s have really caught me, despite myself. The Challenges are sexy and you've really captured the look with this one. The white paint choice is excellent! I can only say the PE used for the window.. vent.. things are a bit heavy handed (I believe they are plexi on the 1:1?), but otherwise, a gorgeous, fantastically detailed build. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks Willimo. I debated for a long time about the window pe. I know it is not right to use the metal there as they are indeed plexi or the like. But,.....I also like the machined look of the pe ones. Kind of made it look more heavy duty?! Who knows, I can always yank them off.

I love it! The black wheels with white paint looks awesome!

Thanks!

Outstanding work! I like white cars...

One thing, though: If it is a street car - shouldn't it have a license plate?

LOL, it is still a track car and not the CS yet! Or, it is still on the lot? LOL No model of mine will ever have a license plate. :runaround:

Damn good word, should be used more often (get the copyright).

Very nice, it deserve all the efforts, at last.

At last is right, lol. This thing was a bear to force myself to finish. But alas - she is done.

Hi Jon,

Absolutely FANTASTIC work! Everything has come together wonderfully. I love all the detail work, especially the brakes and rims...Good lord!

The paint is awesome. I wish I had the same outcome with my effort...I have a few problems.

Great work once again, Jon!

Cheers, Rick

Thanks again for all of the positive feedback - makes me feel better about how long it took. Hopefully it is worthy as part of the 60th LOL. :naughty:
