BTW, I thought my "turtlewax" joke was quite funny - but you took it seriously!

Sorryy if it sounded stupid, I will practice more with my sense(?) of humour

Re: WIP MFH Ferrari 512S Coda Longa 60 Red Years

Hello,
Thanks to everybody for looking;
I had a little spare time today, so here we go for another ................UP.....!
I had a little work on the nuts fixing the wheels.
As I said earlier or somewhere else in another somebody's WIP, I bought a Mill.
so it was time to use it for the first time......
As the wheel nuts provided by Hiro are white metal ones, and not really nice, I decided to try my hand on those. It may not be perfect, but, remember, it's the first time in my lifeI use such a tool.............So.........sorry if it isn't perfect.......!
The first picture are the original provided nuts:


Those are there I made, alumunium:


And here you have the originals, above, and the remade ones down:


I put one, dryfitted, on a wheel to sse the effect.
I think it is not too bad, no?
What do you think, guy's?


I also had a little work on the lights on the body:
Here is the picture:


I really hope that you like it, anyway, as the other times, I'm waiting for your comments, critics and questions.

I also hope you enjoyed this really little UP!

Jamme

Yikes, for your first time using your new mill machine, you sure did an excellent job here. Everything about this model is a real treat for the rest of us following along. Fantastic job you did on the finish also.

Re: WIP MFH Ferrari 512S Coda Longa 60 Red Years

Hello to everybody,
The turtle is back.........! Yes, he is.......with a little UP!!!!
Sory for the delay, hadn't much time with the Hollydays, the garden, and so on......
So, here we go.
First those are the front wings aerations (inserts) given with the kit.......

A little poor compared with the quality of the kit......
I decided to make new ones from my own.
Those are aluminium bits, made in form of an U and put in place.
Here are the results:




I had a litlle more time and made many smalls up.....
I put the "glass" parts on it, the rivets, the radiators and sides....
Here are the pics.








This is all for tonight.
Begining to feel the end of this loooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnng WIP.
More Up really soon.....(as I have to deliver the car one of these day.
Feel free to make comments, critics, and/or questions.
Enjoy the pictures.
Cheers,

Jamme

Re: WIP MFH Ferrari 512S Coda Longa 60 Red Years

It looks really great J-M! Really.

Your idea with the folded alu for the grills is excellent but the overall cleanliness of detail is just...envious

I also really appreciate that this car doesn't shine as if it just came out of a beauty parlour (like a French poodle )
