Ferrari 250 GTO [1/24 Italeri]

Hi,
This is Italeri 1/24 kit.

I emphasized fender flare, added side skirts and changed front section.




After painted primer.




Comparison with the normal body.

Cool, I like the fender flares, not so much the front end.

Very interesting project.
Looks like the offspring of a 250 GTO and a Porsche Turbo 993.

A 'tuned' GTO. I'm looking forward to see how this comes out.

Umm, sorry, not feeling it. To me, with that body kit it looks like some Nissan 280Z wanna-be at best. Great workmanship though.

Re: Ferrari 250 GTO [1/24 Italeri]

First impression I got when seeing the front was it does look a tad bit Japanese 'inspired' but considering I like Japanese cars, I think it's actually an improvement over the original. The only thing I'm not really feeling are the side skirts. The bodylines flow nicely but the side skirts just stick out too much for me. This doesn't detract from enjoying your modelling though

Re: Ferrari 250 GTO [1/24 Italeri]

OMG... In this world there are several things that are already perfect as they are. There are small number of such things but 250 GTO is definitely one of these. While your modeling skills are impressive, sacred things must not be touched. IMO of course.
