hi I'm back with actually two models! this is my final entry for the "gorcb first contest not lamborghini not a ferrari but a ..." contest. It's the beautiful alfa 8C competitzione. It was soo hard to build and the most difficult part were the lights. The other model is the 1935 Alfa Romeo 8C 35 Roadster so I hope you like it plz rate and comment.

mattyy - This is a great car. I'm having difficulty making the back. I was wondering if you have a couple more pictures of you building the back around 2:53? Thanks! |

This looks GREAT!! i feel like the newer alfa could use a little more curve in the side and rear but it is very hard in lego! also thanks for the instructions cause im working on a alfa and i was stuck on the "V" part so i just might use your design! and of course state that it was your design when i post it! Keep building my friend!
please do. However the only drawback of my V- grille is that you won't have much space to put an engine in, but you'll find a way.. |

Hey Matty! So you managed to make the 8C - whohoooo! I guess you are poor on parts, right? When I saw the instructional videos (how awesome is that?!) I realized you were using very odd patrs, like a 2x4 + 2x6 plate instead of a 2x10... Considering that fact, it is even more astonishing how good this thing turned out! I think that's an aspect people should think about before judging... Just in case you haven't already torn it apart (...well, I know you...) I would suggest to increase the front ride height by one plate. And you should definitely spend some bucks on a bricklink order for sweet rims... This one would look 100% more stunning with the challenge rims B-) Nice ride once more, a very beautiful Italian icon & a good idea to pair it with the vintage sister (I thought about that, too!) Best wishes & good luck, Jens
My latest parts, are from about 3 years ago, just so you know ;) By making the instructions vid I took it apart ofcourse because I used daltons idea of taking off bricks and reversing the order. I'm very glad you looked at the video. Those rims are something I really want, and I'm looking for somewhere to buy that set so I also have some red and yellow parts for the future. If you know where I could plz tell me. thanks for giving me tips and commenting on this model really appreciated~greetings from belgium

This time you chose an impossible car... The 8c's curves are almost impossible to replicate with LEGO. The overall shape from the side is similar to the real thing, but I think the front and the rear need some work. For example, front lights in the real car are "into" the curves of the front, so I think you must choose another technique to replicate them. Also the back needs some changes because is too blocky. I know it's hard as I already told you. Anyway, good job! |

Awesome! One of my favorite cars replicated very well in LEGO! Great work! It could use a little work, perhaps to make it look more elegant and detailed, but this is an otherwise fantastic build! nicely done, 5/5! |

I think it is a great car, but the lights need to be flush with the car, I think that would make it look better. |
