Ferrari 599 GTB (With lights!)

This is another Ferrari of mine that was completed some months back. This is by Fujimi and its really an beautiful kit. Color is also an test for the F2007 kit but it failed because it is too red imo. I have added front and rear lights as well!

No Ferrari can ever be too red!

Lovely work. I'd be proud to call this mine.

Wow, I'm totally amazed, this is one of the nicest 599's I've seen built. The color is so deep to me that it gives a fantastic look to this beauty, and the shine is also perfect. Nice photography also. Congrats!

Stunning model!
The paint quality is impressive, and whole whole build is superclean. :worshippy

Beautiful work! Even though the red isn't that close to the F2007 car, the red looks close to the new $10k paint option on the 599 HGTE. Zero Paints has the F2007 color.

Wow, the finish is flawless. Topnotch work, but a few questions. What paint did you use (base) and also what size leds did you use?

BTW With a real backround (outdoors) i think it can pass off as a 1:1. :thumbsup:

Very very beautiful paint and build,bravo.

Lookin good.

Simply perfect work, I can't say more..:smokin:

It's a beautiful model and the colour is really superb. The added bonus of the lights makes it a great build. I'm curious what you used for the power source and where you also located the switch as the end result is a very clean build. Did you also consider lighting the boot light?

The last two pictures are stunning! The working lights add a whole new level of realism to this build. Top notch work!

Like the lights very much!

what's wrong with the red? i think it looks great :p

is it candy red/metallic red? doesn't look like regular red

Hi, its not candy red but a mixture of clear red and orange over silver base. The problem with the color is that im using this to do a trial paint color for my F2007 but realise its too red, not close to my intended color. Thanks for the comment!

any wip?

Hi KevHw, sorry i miss your question. Well i used those very flat type of batteries, i forget the battery code but i think its something like 2025? I locate my batteries and switch (not exactly switch actually, because i manually insert wires to connect to the batteries) at the front hood which i cut out. For the boot lighting, i did really consider it but decide to drop the idea due to complexity. I will try in the future definitely.

stunning!!!

any wip?

Hi sorry i didnt took pictures of the progress for this.

Thanks for the comments!! :)

Only one word : SUPERB!

Wow! "I love Ferraris." The lights look great but the car looks even better.

OMG! That is nice, I love the color! Nice shine too! Very impressive.

Very cool, paint is flawless!! I see a lot of guys ordering paints from all parts of the world and still can't get these type of finishes on their cars, a lot of times they think that just because the paint is imported it will give them proffesional results....:screwy: I don't know where you got this paint but it's your skills that do the talking here my man!!!!:sunglasse:sunglasse

Stunning ! ! ! ! ! ! !

Very impressive model. And nice blog too. I've enjoyed your build very much.

That is realy cool! I love last two pictures with working lights!
