  1. Simply BEAUTIFUL, bud!!!!! I woulda built one of these, but i havent found a clean enough way to replicate the honeycomb pattern in the taillights.
  2. Thanks, Bud!...its a sweet kit actually!...i'm still working on that freaking garden...i think i'm on the home stretch now....i only have a section thats 100'x10' left to do, before i can get back to modelling full tilt.
  3. Looking BRILLIANT, Bud!!!.....i love making stencils as well as using canopy glue.
  4. Another BEAUTIFUL build!!!!....thanks for the suggestions, Bud!.....is there anything i should be aware of concerning the lower body panel between the doors, and wheel arches?...they look a bit lower than the rest of the body lines.
  5. I see....like the Pagani....gotcha, thanks, Bud!!
  6. Thanks, Bud!
  7. LOL!!!
  8. WOW!!!!.....Absolutely LOVE the sparkle on this!!!!!
  9. It looks OUTSTANDING!!!!....bugger the "Period correct" thing!
  10. Its different.....done well so far, and doesnt look bad....i will be following!!
  11. I have this kit in my stash as well....the TWR version, I'm REALLY looking forward to this one, Bud!!!!!
  12. That sounds familiar....i havent been modelling much either, i've been hand weeding our 400'x10' garden. This weird start of the year caused mega growth....i still have a few days left of it, sadly.
  13. I found some excellent reference photos ...FINALLY!!.....some are La Ferrari, but are still VERY useful as you know!....here are a few...
  14. Thanks alot for these, Bud!!, i was even more persistant myself, and scored with a TON of great photos in CAD form!!!
  15. I really hope so, Bud!, its my third favorite Ferrari of all time...is this kit prone to fit issues?...its been falling together for me so far...
  16. Thanks alot, Bud!!
  17. I hope so, Bud!, i wont ever use CF decals on any of my builds -dont really like the look....and since not all CF is exposed, i'm good to go, lol
  18. This is a BEAUTIFUL FXXK!!!!!
  19. As promised, My first update, is all the bits that i pre-assembled. I sanded for fitment, then started gluing the bits together...filled things, and am now in the process of rough sanding. -Photo 1&2; This rear cowl was the worst bit to fill, and sand all six bits that i attached...at least they al fit extremely well. The blotchy spots are where i added super glue to final fill things. -Photo 3; Three parts were joined together here. -Photo 4; Splash guards attached... -Photo 5; Lower control arms, and intercooler added... -Photo 6;Firewall plate added... -Photo 7: I decided to glue the clear belly plate in, and i'm not bothered with the two parts that went in there, since i'm gonna paint it all over. -Photo 8; I decided to add the rear wheel hubs. -Photo 9; Here the rear wing, and side fins are on... -Photo 10; ...the four door vent sides as well. -Photo 11; These door ends were VERY impressive as far as the fitment -so many different angles, and yet they fit better than any part i've ever seen! -Photo 12; The two part guage cluster, and steering column were joined. -Photo 13&14; All these engine bits were assembled... -Photo 15; All 5 bits to the lower half of the dash were pre-assembled as well.......next will be Rough sanding it all!
  20. Ya, i found that one too, but theres nothing for suspension, or the lower part of engine.....even tried photos of the La Ferrari.....i spent 5 hours looking all over...
  21. Nice!!....almost ready to start up!!
  22. Thanks, Bud!.....again, Purists will get their knickers in a twist over this one, lol
  23. Its nice not to be alone, lol
  24. Thanks, bud!...its really stuck in there, lol
  25. Well, everyone, i could not resist starting another car....when you feel motivated this strongly, you gotta go with it, right?! This will be another Uber build for me, and like always, i have some different suprises up my sleeve. What i will tell you now, is that it will be a road car, and it will be semi-gloss white. I spent hours, and hours trying to find detailed photos of the engine, and suspension, but couldnt find that much, so i will do my best with what i did find. I started off by doing as many pre-assembly things i could, and filling seams. I havent started sanding yet, but later today, i will have photos of all those bits.
