hookedonplastics Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 (edited) I am currently working on a pair Daytonas inspired by an old episode of Chasing Classic Cars. In the show, both Ferraris were gold, but I decided that one of them had to be Italian Red for my build. I still have a long way to go... Edited July 28, 2014 by hookedonplastics
hjracing Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 I really like Daytonas, is my favotite Ferrari of all times! Nice start!
Jaguar man 21 Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 I love that show got to meet Wayne carini at a car show relly nice guy great models too
Jaguar man 21 Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 (edited) The gold looks amazing great job Edited July 29, 2014 by Jaguar man 21
DynoMight Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 The interior is great! Are the gauges decals or paint?
hookedonplastics Posted July 29, 2014 Author Posted July 29, 2014 Thanks Glenn! They are dry brushed with silver and then a couple of coats of Future to simulate glass (that is hard to see in the photos). The two needles were done with a red Sharpie.

The two needles were done with a red Sharpie. I'll have to try the Sharpie sometime soon... Is the future distorting the gauges? The Sharpie seems a little big.

No, I think I may have scraped a little too much paint (black) off of the needle before I used the Sharpie. Kinda looks like it is vibrating at idle, doesn't it?
slusher Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 Both look great, but the gold is different from the most builds I have seen. Great work so far...
Tompidom Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 Very nice! I had the same insperation form Chacing Classic Cars when I built mine
hookedonplastics Posted July 29, 2014 Author Posted July 29, 2014 Both look great, but the gold is different from the most builds I have seen. Great work so far... Thanks Carl! The gold on those old Ferraris is a real unassuming color. It took many tries to get it right!Nice build Tom! I like the color combination!
