Ferrari wooden sculptures

Hi,

I'd like to show the work I did on Ferrari
Found of Ferrari, I told myself, why not realize a wooden scale model

Hereafter, you will find the fabulous 288 GTO (1/12 scaled)

At the beginning, it was a piece of oak
Only with hand tools, I make it only with the help of pictures

3 months were necessary (130 working hours)

Currently, I'm working of the daughter of the 288 GTO: the F40

I will be happy to have your feedback, comments or reactions on my work...
Don't hesitate to ask me questions, I'll be happy to share with you my passion

Hi Julius,

Hi,

2 months ago, I presented my work on a 288 GTO 100% hand carved
Today, I add the daughter of the 288: The F40
Always same principe: from a raw piece of wood, I carve the car to obtain what you see on the pictures









Total work duration: 130 hours
This is made from limetree (the 288 in the middle is made of oak, the 288 on the left side is made of badi)

Do not hesitate to ask, I enjoy sharing my passion

Hi,

In 2013, I posted a few messages showing my creations in wooden sculpture.

Pictures of the 288 GTO (oak), F40 and Testarossa (limetree) were put on the web
I continue to carve cars. Always the same principle: from a raw piece of wood, I carved first with chisels then with abrasive papers the wood to create the model realised at the wished scale (mainly 1/12 or 1/10)

Everything is done by hand, the time spent for each project is globally the same (120-130 hours)

After the Testarossa , I carved the Enzo (oak - scale 1/10), the 250 GTO (badi - scale 1/12), the Daytona (oak - scale 1/12), I’m currently on a 458 (cherry tree – scale 1/15) and a Porsche 930 Turbo (redwood – scale 1/13)
Soon, chestnut will be carved ...
