side profile, rear slits...

In the hole I will simulate a piston that will act as a real auction ...

the opening of the doors I decided to make them with seagull wings which led me to modify the roof and door, the latter I had to cut because it hit the wheel arch ...

I took a bit of Bugatti, a bit of Lamborghini and a little bit of mine, this is basically how it will be: the aluminum part will be in pyramid shape and will connect with the roof, while the 3 parts in glass plasticard, all openable. his is the definitive shape to be finished of the bonnet with the 3 glasses that I will install when the model is completed.

with experience. Practically put the glue and then dust over the bicarbonate forming a very strong dough that you can sand and shape. Try it ...

from Sicily, Enna province.

thanks to all of you guys, actually I'm ahead with the work, today I have some time to post the progress so as to align myself with the current state.

Thanks, it was a model that gave me a lot of damage. Seeing that tribute was love at first sight ...

Meanwhile today I have finished giving the shapes and the lateral ribs with the usual technique of the brass rod, it was quite difficult to make the two equal sides because unlike the front bonnet there is the obstacle of the passenger compartment ...

I continue to sketch the back... first coat of putty ...

I modeled the side panels this is the final shape.

first coat of putty ... Meanwhile today I have finished giving the shapes and the lateral ribs with the usual technique of the brass rod, it was quite difficult to make the two equal sides because unlike the front bonnet there is the obstacle of the passenger compartment ...

I recreated the housing for the drains... I continue to sketch the back...

I started to shape the back ... I continue to form the back, for this part I used a profile for pvc tiles that has the right camber that I needed, and then adapt it to the model ...

I sketched the new lines of the hood ... I continue to give the shapes, today's work has consisted of giving harmony, with the right ribs, to the roof and the bonnet ..

I continue to sketch the sides.. ... I welded the bonnet because of the shapes the gas filler will be on the top so only the inner part will open. Then the usual technique with the brass rod to recreate the shapes. ... to finish I recreated the side of the wing with cyan + bicarbonate ... resistance test of the compound.

I made the small central ribs. The procedure is always that of the rough coat with reference brass rod and final application of plasticard from 0.3. it's just sketched

here I dedicated myself to the wheel arch radius considering the new wheel footprint and also calculating the new ground clearance. I gave the first draft on the front, at the end I will mount the carbon splitter that I will realize once I finish modeling the whole body ...

I started to rebuild the lower part of the front, again with the brass rod technique I found the right curve by welding the two ends (with cyan and bicarbonate) in the same point ...

I continue to model...

once the general lines are obtained, the crowning works begin. As a method I adopt the system of applying brass rods to have the curvature guidelines, by doing so sanding I will have the curve line as a reference . in the fenders I remove the excess from the inside ...

I continue to give the new shapes on the upper part of the front hood, I gave the first coat of putty and sanded. I cut across the highlighted points

cutting work begins the works on the front proceed, the shapes become more and more similar to those of the drawing, however, I decided to leave the two air intakes on the hood instead of one as proposed by the designer ...

this is the scrap, given to me, from where I started.

Hi i'm a italian modeller end i decided to modify a Pocher F40 model and imagine how it could be today. The main muse is a revisitation of the F40 designed by designer Samir Sadikhov. My intention is to maintain almost all of the pocher kit, modifying it to make it similar to the designer's project, similar because I will also use mine.
