1/20 1956 Ferrari D50 Streamliner French GP

Post by racingkars »

My scale 1/20 Ferrari D50 Streamliner project is complete. Maybe i will do some extra weathering...
The car was driven by Alfonse de Portago during the French GP.
Full WIP on my website as always in English/Nederlands.

Wow!!! really beautiful!! :D
I love the level of gloss.
One thing: not trying to be the smart ass here, but that pitch is accurate? or a ride height issue?
I mean, it has quite high rear...

I know, i know, it has it's flaws... :D
I noticed it too when i had the pics published.
It probably has to do with the fact the rear doesn't fit very well....
I will have a look at it.

Corrected...

I liked it a lot! I was thinking in a similar solution for my old Revival D50 kit, but opted in the end for a shorter "standard" nose cone. Great to see a De Portago racing mount built.
