Dave B Posted December 10, 2021 Posted December 10, 2021 Firstly I'd like to thank my old mate Phil for the 3D filament print and the urethane tyres and our friend Vlad for the file, now I'm sweating on the 300S Vlad!! This is my take on Louis Rosier's Monza, as raced in the 1955 Dakar GP were he finished 2nd. He was fatally injured in this car at Montlhery on the 7th October 1956. Seats, transmission tunnel, wheel rims and other small bits and pieces are from my resin bits box. Photeched bonnet straps are Profil 24 and the bonnet and boot fasteners are home made from fuse wire!! Model was finished in a home mix of auto acrylic blue and clear coated. Decals from my left over stash. Tks for looking Dave B
1959scudetto Posted December 10, 2021 Posted December 10, 2021 Such an amazing model, Dave - very well done ! A ferrari in French blue - if it were not for the yellow prancing horse it could be mistaken for a Gordini or something similar.
Gramps46 Posted December 10, 2021 Posted December 10, 2021 Once again, a great accomplishment with scratch building an iconic body.
Rich Chernosky Posted December 11, 2021 Posted December 11, 2021 An amazing model considering what you started with. Very well done.
89AKurt Posted December 11, 2021 Posted December 11, 2021 Wow, a very successful accomplishment, love the subject!
Silver Foxx Posted December 12, 2021 Posted December 12, 2021 This looks so right , a great build , you do real nice work . A blue Ferrari is such a nice change .
Michael jones Posted December 12, 2021 Posted December 12, 2021 Amazing how you turned a rough body into a piece of art with a glass like finish!
Dave B Posted December 18, 2021 Author Posted December 18, 2021 Tks for the comments guys. It looks like the 300S file may be delayed but I have high hopes that an A6GCS file I bought may be usable shortly. Dave B
