Making of Ferrari Daytona 365GTB

Hello,
This is Italeri kit.
I make it little modern look, changed front bumper style, added fender flares, rear spoiler
and omit rear bumpers.
At first, I planned to do big modification on front section, engine hood and rear section.
but reconsidered to leave beautiful base body style.
even so I'm wondering some guys don't like what I'm doing to this.

Front bumper and rear small spoiler are made from plastic stick.




After primed.
it needs more putty work on flares.

Re: Making of Ferrari Daytona 356GTB

They are usually red but I realy like Daytona in Miami Vice style, black as a midnight. I made one in dark green long time ago but ok it is your choice, with red you can never go wrong.
I know it will be perfect in any colour.
What about those? http://www.mediamixhobby.com.sg/cata...cacfe0a67cd809

Im thinking something bright paint. It brings all those details to life.

And I like your modernisation work.

Uh, a customized Daytona.... Now that's something I wouldn't do in real life, but I'm looking forward to see how it'll look in scale

Re: Making of Ferrari Daytona 356GTB

This should be nice, red or yellow is the only way to go...

Re: Making of Ferrari Daytona 356GTB

Its okay to modify an Italeri kit. Now if it was an Enthusiast kit, you would be in trouble. Seriously, the modifications look good, you have a good sense of what will work with the design. How about an orange color?

Re: Making of Ferrari Daytona 356GTB

Great start Kunta!
How do you go about making the fender flares? I've always tried to understand that with you car builders. They seem so perfect from start, or are these pics taken after heavy sanding?
best regards
Joel

I think that they also made this car in yellow, I think that would look good.
