After the Bugatti 32, that was a little test for some new techniques, I started this new project. Ok, ok, many of you have never head of this little Italian brand and, to tell the truth, never I until two months ago. The Diatto was a small Italian brand, famous for producing the Bugatti 23 under licence in Italy (the Diatto 30), but produced even some original cars, like the Tipo 20. The Diatto spent a lot of money in races but, even if it was successfully in many little races, if failed in achieving in the major ones, even if won in its own category (2 litter, both Targa Florio and Le Mans). However, its place in history didn't come from its sport achievement, but from the fact that the Maserati's brothers worked for them. When in 1926 the factory failed, they gave to the Maserati a couple of chassis and spare parts of a Diatto tipo 26 instead of money...
the first Maserati, the Maserati tipo 26, was born.
I choose this model because it was really squared and I was lucky to find a draw of the chassis, well, at least of the sedan model, not the two seats sport version, so I modified the blueprint according to the pictures I collected. Moreover, there is a wonderful HD picture of the n. 17 car of Massola on the Targa Florio of 1922, so I started! As normal, I started with the 3d model...
