This was the first Countach presented to public, and I'll replicate this one.

Awesome mate!
Can't wait to see more

What colour are you going to go with the interior?

Probably black or brown.

Today I finished the wash in the undercarriage and painted exhaust tips with Alclad.

Looking good, this isn't the reissued kit is it?

Looking good, this isn't the reissued kit is it?

I don't think so, I have this for many many years.

It is the same as the recent re-issue, but I think they cleaned up the wheels a bit and made the glass fit a little better, but still the same "motorized" model.

It will make a good curbside kit though.

I'll keep my eyes on this one for sure, as the Countach is my FAVORITE Itallian Stallion (sorry raging bull doesn't rhyme with Itallian...but they WERE both boxers...wait, how did Porche get involved in this...ugh, I need sleep! hahaha)

Looks really really good so far!! IMO the seats could use some depth...perhaps a slightly darker shade washed into the seams? Very nice work so far though...great detailing!!

Thats a good idea for tan interiors, never thought of that; probably because I just spray everything matte black and call it a day. :headshake

I tried, but didn't like the result, so I repainted and didn't "washed" again.

I forgot the seat belts connector, but now it's on place:

Nice work. I like the shade you chose for the interior. One possibility for the seats, as long as it doesn't make them look out of place with the rest, is to dry-brush them with a slightly lighter shade. I've used this technique before repeatedly, but not on (new) car seats, so you might not want to risk repainting them a third time :)

That red looks very nice!

Today I finished my second model this year. Hope you like.
