Finished: Ferrari 612 Scaglietti (yes, the ugly one :) )
Here is my scaglietti!
you might have seen my nearly done progress thread. Well, after that this little bugger received a fresh coat of paint and lotsa clear, with the obligate polishing and waxing. So far so good, the car looks quite good to my standards. What has been changed to the kit build? -chrome bleached off and painted. -ride height dropped in front and rear of about 1 MM -exhaust pipes redone -detail painting around -thinning of all the parts of the body -changed the windscreen wipers -built engine-less and glued close hood, because of a major fuckup and the wait for a new scaglietti to make. -the horsey on the back is a piece out of the extra box, thinned and made black for a greater impact. That's about it, a simple model, some small improvements and voila, a nice eyecatcher. Oh, did I mention it's also very big and ugly? Enjoy the pics, which came out very good IMO!       Olivier |

Re: Finished: Ferrari 612 Scaglietti (yes, the ugly one :) )
Well, here we go again. I just replied on the Austin and might as well have a go on this one to.
In some of the pics I could swear that it's the real deal. Amazing work! Looking very good but as you write the ugly one. I too think it's an ugly one, but this is one of those cars you have to see a couple of times and then it starts growing under your skin. The ugly duckling turns out to be a swan. Thank you for the peek! Niclas |

Stunning job! I think this car looks sooo good in silver... it looks cool in black too, though. I might be building a black one some day...
Sorry to hear about the engine! Did you encounter any further problems while building the kit?

Re: Finished: Ferrari 612 Scaglietti (yes, the ugly one :) )
well Oli - what can I say?!?!
Amazing build, it looks so bloody real in the photos!! Super job!!! and you don't even like it  You know my opinion about the car  PS I've still got a couple of my decal/chrome-free 612 kits - if you want one, it's yours PPS - put some wash on the rims!! j/k

You did a great job on this ugly/bland Ferrari
 .The pics make it look real. Lowering helps tremendously. I don't know why the 1:1 has to look like it's ready for off-road excursions  .I was working on my Scaglietti this weekend at a modelpalooza w/Veyron, CADguy, Mach I 2003, GTMike400 and other ACME members and I think I made mine a bit less bland and somewhat less ugly than the 1:1 version . Pics will follow. It looks good next to Veyron's Scags, will be a nice contrast to his 612 Stradale.

Nice work on the Scag. Never thought a Ferrari wuld look that good in shiny silver. I wonder what the fuckup at engine was???
 Why did you use the black horse on the trunk?? It sure has some impact, but somehow it looks like it doesn´t belong there. But nevermind, just my 2 cents. Nevertheless, great execution of your project.

Awesome! Certainly, my favorite stock built version of this car so far.

Great paint, Oli. You made a frumpy car look hot. Great work!
