Description

Model of my favourite car in the history of cars! Together with the full model I have included a "half-cut" model divided in front and rear, so you can print it more easily. The wheels are inspired by the Fifteen52 Tarmac Cast rims, a very clean design than can be printed with no issue at all even on filament printers. I have included a pdf file for the lights as well. For my own model I just simply printed it on normal printer paper and glued it in place, adding a thin layer of clear nail polish to get the glossy effect. As is, the scale is about 1/52, but of course you can easily scale it as you like.
