Progress: Ferrari 575M Maranello

Hi. I'm not really known for my exotic car builds but I didn't want to be left out of the AF tribute group build. This is the Fujimi kit and will be built pretty much out of box (with the addition of the 19" Aoshima Hamann PG3 wheels) to very closely resemble s/n #127584...


I may attempt to do an exact replica but who knows?! Anyway, here's where I am so far. I need to add front and rear side marker lights but the body prep is pretty much straightforward. Thanks for looking.

Those wheels look perfect! I wish I had those for my 550 build. This is going to be the WIP to watch!

Re: Progress: Ferrari 575M Maranello

Hi. I got a chance to add some primer today...


Hopefully more updates soon; I'm waiting for my new airbrush to arrive before I decide to paint it. Thanks.

Re: Progress: Ferrari 575M Maranello

Hello. The color isn't exactly like the 1:1 car and I used a spraycan instead of my new airbrush but I can live with it...


The color is a Duplicolor paint with Model Master lacquer clear. Thanks

Hello,
Nice work you did there!
The only think I find, is that the color you used as some large metalic flakes, no?
Maybe this is the way you want it?
Nice anyway.

I suppose it's a bit out of scale but the color I wanted wasn't available and I was too impatient to wait for it. Thanks all!

Re: Progress: Ferrari 575M Maranello

How many Ferraris do you have going? This looks excellent - the wheels are perfect and I love that you've modded them to look right instead of accepting them. Great work so far on the paint, too, can't wait to see this shape up.

You mean all this time you never had an airbrush? Wow, you sure fooled me. Looking forward to more on this build.

Thanks Will! I have 3 that I'm actively working on, I haven't posted progress of the 360 Spider yet; as soon as the 3 kits arrive from HLJ, I think the total will be 6 (7 if you count the Enzo I bought but am not sure if I'll attempt it yet )

Well, I do have a Badger basic spray gun set but that doesn't really count for more than a "paint sprayer" to me since I have not much control over anything other than the amount of air pressure from my compressor. I look forward to using a "real" airbrush so I can get much better results from my paintjobs overall. Thank you for the kind comments and please feel free to critique anything that you think needs my attention. I'm really diggin' this whole "exotic car" genre!
