ismaelg Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 Hello, Felice Ferriello is one of the best modelers I've ever had the privilege of meeting in person. We met online back in 1998, at what eventually became ScaleCorvettes.com. By a twist of fate, I happened to go to Venezuela on business and it turned out that in Caracas, a city of 8 million people, he lived very close to our office!!!!! I have since then gone again and we meet like very old friends. I’ve met members of his modeling club and they are a very talented and diverse bunch. Every time some co-worker goes there we try to exchange modeling stuff. His display shelf is impressive! Here are some of his builds: His interpretation of a Z06 with a cutoff roof. The yellow C5 in the back is one of my favorites. That was some sort of shootout/group build (group of 2 in 2 different countries) between us back in 2003. We both built Caravaggio Customs inspired cars. I did the silver convertible and he did this one. Interestingly, without knowing it, we both chose the same wheels out of hundreds of options (psst, don't tell him but I like his better than mine... :wink: ) Perry's C5-53. I ordered it to my home and had a co-worker deliver it. Most likely the only C5-53 in Venezuela One of my all time favorites, and the car I met him with The very first AMT Camaro concept in Venezuela. The minute it was released, I got one for him, and another co-worker was going there the next day! Eleanor from the movie. He built this a few years ago. A modern companion A Hertz Shelby A replica of his 1:1 which is a perfectly restored car. Monogram Boss 429 And he has the guts to say I inspire him... HA!! I have more so I'll be posting them later. Thanks,
RJWood Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 WOW, Mr. Felice Ferrielo's work is Fantistic. his "Eleanor" Shelby car is awsome, Can't wait to see more. Please let him know, his work to me is inspiring.
Reliable Resin Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 I love Those VETTES Thanks for Posting them Izzy !
Peter Lombardo Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 Not a lot to say except WOW.... Great paint Great build, and Great subjects. The Mustang's really have that "Gotcha" factor. "Eleanor" is as beautiful a build as I have ever seen. Great work. I want to see more.
John Goschke Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 Super nice work! Engine detail is terrific as is the paint, and, well, everything!
