Ferrari F430 Challenge Street Version

[Bloody]

Hi!
That's my newest project, that's Fujimi 1:24 Ferrari F430 Challenge. I made it for street version - without racing decals. I didn't like them. I think without them F430 looks much better. I don't have any progress pics, so I give you only pictures for complete project. And a little riddle for you - how long time I was working on this project?

Best regards, and feedback please!

Turned out really nice, the only thing I would add is racing seatbelts, but really good otherwise!

true, it DOES look better without that silly strip on it. Great work, great paintjob.

Really nice! Yes, without decals looks definitely better.

Looks like you are missing the front intake pieces that go on the sides?!

I went this route with mine and was way happier than the Challenge look. Did you have a mishap with the super glue on the driver side mirror? Looks great as all red Ferraris do, lol. Nice build.

Did you have a mishap with the super glue on the driver side mirror?

Yes, I did :/

Nice build, is it clear-coated? I'm thinking I might go without the clear when I do a nice red Ferrari, but still not sure about it. Also, the blue background is putting a purplish cast on some of the pics, you might want to throw in some neutral bg pics (white/grey/black).

[Bloody]

Yes, it is clear-coated.

nice job! I dig the background color too, how'd you shoot it? in a box, on a table, what did you use for the background? It makes the red just POP
Cool build

Nice one. I plan on doing the same thing for mine with only a couple of differences.

The tail light is a bit too light, did you paint clear red from inside?

[Bloody]

Red - yes, clear - nope I don't have clear red, when I'll be in the city where is modelshop, I have to buy it.
