1/12 Ferrari 375 plus completed
I did this build to commemorate Ferrari's 60th anniversary and I wanted to build a classic racing Ferrari with spoked wheels. This is a 1/12 scale MG Models kit with alot of scratchbuilt detail. Some details I had to guess at due to minimal reference pics, but I like how it turned out.
     Some interior detail. The tool bag? is covered with leather. I originally wanted to cover the seats, but couldnt get a big enough piece of leather thinned down. The leather grain would have probably been to large anyway.  Here, some electronics are visible on the firewall.  The engine bay is detailed on the topside. Without full chassis detail, I didnt think the lower engine bay details were worth doing.   Now that this one is done, I wonder what big scale project to tackle next? That Porsche 934 looks like a good one. |

Re: 1/12 Ferrari 375 plus completed
Not to detailed, but the detail that is there looks awesome. I love the floor plate, it really looks like someone drove with heavy shoes. Paint, interior, engine bay are flawless.

Re: 1/12 Ferrari 375 plus completed
I was already impressed in the WIP but the extra detail visible in these new images just bumped the rating to 200% on the Meisterstück-ometer
 Truly one of those builds that one will never forget having seen.

Re: 1/12 Ferrari 375 plus completed
Really good looking model.
How much did you have to modify the engine parts? This really makes me want to build one of those 1/12 MGModels kits. -Niko

Ever speachless....
I knowed you were a great modeller, but you really shocked me with those machined details, with rims, with overall neat appeal. Just congrats: you achieved something really special.
