barneius Posted January 17, 2021 Ferrari 288 GTO is a classic model debuted in 1984 at Geneva Motor Show and was produced in number of only 277 until 1987. With its four square driving lights under the nose it is one of the most characteristic supercars of the 80’s. This is my second Speed Champions 8 studs wide style model. 359 pieces solid build to fit official theme. If you would like to have it in your collection, instructions are available at rebrickable: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-62943/barneius/ferrari-288-gto/#details LEGO Ferrari 288 GTO MOC by barneius, on Flickr LEGO Ferrari 288 GTO MOC by barneius, on Flickr LEGO Ferrari 288 GTO MOC by barneius, on Flickr LEGO Ferrari 288 GTO MOC by barneius, on Flickr LEGO Ferrari 288 GTO MOC by barneius, on Flickr LEGO Ferrari 288 GTO MOC by barneius, on Flickr LEGO Ferrari 288 GTO MOC by barneius, on Flickr LEGO Ferrari 288 GTO MOC by barneius, on Flickr LEGO Ferrari 288 GTO MOC by barneius, on Flickr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dimka_ya Posted January 18, 2021 Very good model! 8pin cars look much better than 6pin cars Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dazzzy Posted January 22, 2021 This looks awesome! If i could change one thing though, it would be the wingmirrors. Apart from that, it looks spot-on! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Feuer Zug Posted January 22, 2021 Excellent work. You've captured the spirit of the 288 GTO. Going 8-wide with the new Speed Champions works well for this supercar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is always room for improvement - those mirros should indeed be higher but I just could not find any acceptable solution. If you have one - give me a hint ;) 2 hours ago, Feuer Zug said: You've captured the spirit of the 288 GTO. Thanks a lot! That’s indeed very important in this scale. Even though 8 studs wide size compared to 6 gave so much more room for modelling, Speed Champions „scale” is still a challenge to model all proportions and sizes ideally. Thus capturing „the spirit” is so crucial. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you have one - give me a hint ;) Sorry, i can't think of any solution really. Having said that, i can think of one, but it would mean sacrificing the 2x1 sloped curve that sits on top of the front arch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
