F1 Ferrari 2005 finished

[ferrari2k]

This is my finished 2005 Ferrari from Revell in 1/24





I hate Revell for not making the proper non-tobacco-livery but I have no opportunity to make my own decals...
Comments are welcome
Thanks to everybody which helped me with the steering wheel and reference pics
Ferrari 412 T1B and Ferrari F430 will follow

Sorry to say this, but it seems both front and rear track seem way too wide. The width of the model should be 1796/24 mm, which is about 75 mm. The outer edges of wheels/tyres seem to be further apart than that.

Otherwise it looks pretty good, but perhaps some better pictures would be of use.

I just measured, the car is 80 mm wide, which is OK for me.
I can't do anything for the width, sry
For the pictures I do not have any better camera, I will buy one as soon as I have the money, but that may take a loooong time

I think, Ferrari2k, you sould do something better with your actual camera:

1- keep some lights / soot outside (well during the day)

2- take a tripod or a solid base for the camera and use auto-shoot funct.

3- place a white blackground to imprrove the light's set

Is quetly useless if you make a great model and crap picts: just a little more care and you'll have some better results also with your actual camera, I guess. Well we wait for better photos, now.

OK, I will try.
I just want to get the photos online as soon as the model is finished
Is there a special reason to use auto-func?

[ales]

Yes, when you use auto-shoot (delay), you don't spoil the shot by the movement of your hands/fingers as you press the button. When using a delay the camera sits perfectly still on the tripod at the moment it actually shoots the photograph.

80 mm is the same as the Mclaren MP4/20 from Revell, and it's something i will be correcting.
