Re: Ferrari F50 GT custom Lot of pics beware!

Wow, that has a lot of promise! It's looking really cool. The scoop on the rear looks a little big and not elegant in my eyes, but otherwise, it's looking to become a masterpiece. Your detail, paint, and CF work is stunning, and I am amazed at how well done your body is so far.

Re: Ferrari F50 GT custom Lot of pics beware!

this is an interesting build, but I agree with will that the scoop is not flowing with the body. I would change the size and mainly the shape to better fit the feel of the Ferrari. love your work on the CF and turbos looking forward to the finished result.

Thanks for the compliments! But as for the scoop what would you guys suggest since ferrari doesnt really do the scoop. I was kinda going for the buggati veyron type intake just peeking over the roof. Example pics maybee of what you guys think you work better? Oh and im still adding the piping from the turbos to the intake which will be above the intake manifold.

Re: Ferrari F50 GT custom Lot of pics beware!

Something perhaps a a little more elegant, the big quarter sphere just seems out of place. Something like what the Veyron has would be amazing, as would even a scoop like what you'd find on F1 cars or the JGTC NSXs, but I think the Veyron style scoops would be perfect, or even something like what TRD sold to mount on the last generation MR2.

Again, your work is amazing. I'm not trying to second guess you, just making suggestions on what I think will be an awesome model no matter what.
