Exclamation New Project: Hamann 360 Modena Spider w/ progress pics (CAUTION! Many images)

Hey guys, I've started another project again. I know that I haven't been very good at finishing any of them as you may have seen in my past postings. This one will need to be finished because I'm being paid to do this one for a customer from my local hobby shop - www.best1hobby.com . The customer wanted an aero kit from Hamann tuning with a lowering job and some aftermarket wheels. The color will be done in Italian red. I don't have the wheelset yet as the shop has not received a shipment on them yet for the customer to choose from.
I've included some images with the styrene sheets cut out waiting to be formed and mounted. There some with the front and rear spoilers done a shaped. the side skirts will be added soon. I've made an extra set of the aero kit already for my own 360 Modena which won't be finished for a while. I'll likely put that wing on top of the engine cover. this one here won't have it. Here's some progess pics with the actual car for reference. -

Looks GREAT! Very organized.

Is this a Fujimi kit? Why so much mold lines?

Tamiya should be very insulted by now with that comment. You should complain to them about that Xenocryst!!! Fujimi? Huh? When did they make a 360 kit? I know Revell should be coming out with one soon. As for the mold lines-I HAVEN'T FINISHED YET! The body requires much more work for me to go and start sanding all the seams. What you see there is after 3 hours of total work from when I first opened up the box.

Cool Some progress pics.

Hey guys/ gals, I got to work on this again. The last time, I don't think anyone was real interested except for Chris (Flyonthewall).

Well, here's some new pics.
This is the rear diffuser:

The wheels. These things need to be staggered(skinny front, wide rear) I'll just sand the lip on the front rim down to look proper.

Before I forget, I need to thank Chris again for sending me the pics of the proper rear diffuser. I originally made it a tad too deep into the rear. Now its right.

Still lookin good!

I thought that perhaps you would have made the front splitter a bit thicker?

Chris, I didn't want the front end to look too weighted down with a thicker piece of styrene. I think on the real car it looks thicker because of the curves - kinda like a small lip at the ends, then tapering towards the inner parts of the bumper. While I was painting, I considered that and tried to duplicate by airbrushing a bit more paint to the very ends of the plastic. This did improve a bit by rounding and thickening. Oh, well there's still gonna be Hamann #2 (mine). This one's being done for a customer. What he doesn't know, won't hurt! As the saying goes-Ignorance is bliss!
