octavspot Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 As an example of one of my earliest efforts of large-scale Technic projects, I thought I'd share this here - my (now dismantled) Ferrari FF. After scrapping my 599 Ferrari a couple of years ago, I long pondered about what I should rebuild it into. That is, until I found out about arguably the most unusual Ferrari of them all... the FF. I loved it. So, I had to build it. Ferrari FF by Octav_spot, on Flickr I have to say, the cable Technic parts came in handy to emulate the FF's curvy shape... I just wish I had more of them. FF Profile 3 by Octav_spot, on Flickr Since, y'know - it looks kinda naked... FF Headlamps by Octav_spot, on Flickr I'd spent hours on the FF's front-end - so, as a result, it was my favorite part of the whole car - If I stared hard enough at it, I could almost look past the gaps in the fenders and see the FF's sloping LEDs... FF Profile 2 by Octav_spot, on Flickr All in all, I was fairly pleased with this MOC. It had all-wheel-drive (albeit, via two separate XL motors, one in front, one in back) and despite its size, it was relatively light. And even though the FF is all but gone now, it was enough to get me thinking about possibly trying my hand at the stunningly-beautiful 458 Italia... Anyway, Enjoy! :D Quote

Rishab N Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Great job! You really managed to capture the shape of the car Quote
Lakop Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Good looks. Have you only used parts from the ferrari model ? H Quote
octavspot Posted July 30, 2013 Author Posted July 30, 2013 Good looks. Have you only used parts from the ferrari model ? H Thanks! Majority of the fundamental parts are indeed from the 599 GTB Fiorano set - gears, motors, suspension, etc are all extra. Quote
Someonenamedjon Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Great job, but, IMO, the back is a bit too open. Quote
octavspot Posted July 31, 2013 Author Posted July 31, 2013 Great job, but, IMO, the back is a bit too open. Thanks! Yeah, the back end was a bit "nude" lol... Quote
