    Here you go! Tried a couple of shades I found appealing, one of the blue's (middle one) is a pearl/metallic style one, bit over the top perhaps but looks pretty.

    Making the stripes was kinda difficult with this extreme perspective so I kept it to the front 3/4 and top view.

    Also shopped in some Scuderia wheels :)

    Jim, this is awesome. Those scud stripes are terrific. Could you attempt to drag that mesh on the rear between the lights to show what an all mesh challange rear might look like?

    I am, at this moment, squealing like a little schoolgirl. LOL! This thread is that cat's jammies!

    Have to say, all those beautiful shades look even better with the black wheels. Even the two-tone/black roof looks great, particularly with that bit of black hatch lid. Has to make one think: Perhaps a carbon-roofed version could someday be on the "Scuderia/CS" offering?

    Thanks for the chops Jim! Made my day.

    Here you go mate :)

    Not many pictures out there of Vinaccia, found a Scuderia studio render in that color and a 599 real life pictures.
    The studio render had a slight tint more red then the real life pictures so I slightly biased towards the real life pictures with the little purple tint.

    Blu Abu Dhabi, same problem, seems to be even rarer, only found pictures of a 599 with it and matched it to those.
    Hope you like it.

    Jim,

    Thank you so much for all your Photoshopping... this car is absolutely stunning... I'm sitting here giggling like a little school girl.

    I was wondering if you would mind going back to your Red w/ Black top, and then blacking out the front bonnet as well (and maybe the mirrors?). TIA!

    Some of these photoshoped cars are outstanding looking. Many thanks to those who are doing this. I've always felt that the Ferrari red doesn't best show the shape. These are certainly proving it (with the exception of the Hello Kitty car where I almost lost my cookies).

    The car looks just gorgeous. I can't wait to see it face to face.

    I have a little request.. Id like to see how the car will look like if the tail lights are inside the rear end, not popping out of the top of the rear if you know what i mean. Just like the P4/5.
