ismaelg Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 Hello, I don't do commisioned work. But a good friend asked me to paint a model for him. Since I'm still in a car "slump" since November, I thought this could be a good therapy to get back into the groove. Box stock Ferrari 612. Ready for polishing. I have to remind myself "Box Stock, not mine, box stock, not mine..." Thanks,
Zoom Zoom Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 Looks nice in that color! Is this for for Jose? Box stock 612's look good when they've had a serious lowering. Okay, that won't be box stock anymore but it helps immensely!
ismaelg Posted January 30, 2007 Author Posted January 30, 2007 OK, box stock with some "interpretation" of the term No, not for Jose. He is now working on his own. I'm bugging him to actualy finish something. He has since started about 6. He quickly picked the bad habits instead of the good ones!
ismaelg Posted January 30, 2007 Author Posted January 30, 2007 Sweet!! What paint/color is that?? It's called blue, one of the primary colors :wink: Just kidding Plastikote Lacquer Metallic blue. (No, not Duplicolor, Plastikote) Harder to find (at least here) than chicken teeth.
Daniel Peterson Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 Looks like DupliColor Maui blue...I think that's the name of it. 'Course, I'm in Minnesota right now where the wind chill has it feeling like a skin-crackin' -8 degrees...could be affecting my mental capacity. At least now I have an excuse... 8)
Daniel Peterson Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 Dan ya wuss! That's Mr. Wuss to you, kid...
Guest zebm1 Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 Still looks like a Nissan Izzy..... :twisted:
Jairus Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 Henry, how many times do I have to tell you to lay off the guys? Can't you tell it looks like Mustang, fer'heavens sake....? :roll:
bestfreshman Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 Great paint job. I really like that color. I hope you get motivated Ismael, and take a car project for build!
Daniel Peterson Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 Can't you tell it looks like Mustang, fer'heavens sake....? :roll: Great...now I can't look at it without seeing the Mustang roofline. Thanks a lot, buddy.
bob paeth Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 The comments seen here calling out the Ferrari and the Mustang in the same genre reminded me of this actual happening: In the year 1964 when Mustang was new to the public, the editor of Road and Track magazine was driving a Ferrari as his personal vehicle. It was parked just outside the magazines office when a pedestrian saw it and gave it a "once-over". Noticing the horse on the grille work, he approached the editor and asked if him that "new Mustang" was his. A "put-down" editor polilely explained to the gentleman the meaning of life and the not so little difference between the two marques. OOOOPs bob :shock:
