Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 Roadster - Versace

Hey Guys

Well after 3 & a bit years I finally managed to finish my Versace Lambo!
Been a long fight, shes fought me all the way, even down to simple things like putting it together! (even taking Photos the bloody wheel fell off & the windcreeen detached itself!!!) Fujimi really did a aweful job of their Murcielago & Hobby Designs Resin Transkit was average too (when I finally got a set that actualy fit...).
Heres the WIP http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=1067603

& the Completed Pics!!!

Respect man, good result and beautiful bags! I did this transkit and I gave it up. Horror...

ASH you finished. I was starting to think you crawled into a modelers hole! But here you are. I could never build anything that takes that long. The car looks really good. You even made bags! Wow, what else can I say? Paint looks good. Work is clean. Thanks for sharing

Nice work Ash mate!
Im a big fan of white lambos ;)

Glad to see it made it to the show in time
The luggage is a nice touch aswel

Nice job, especially getting the Hobby Design parts to fit!

Awesome job Ash! What a challenge of a kit. I know how it feels when a kit fights you the whole way. Well done!

Wow. A lot of work on this. Congrats for the result and your passion...

Verz nice result, and a beautiful get-together.

Yes, always the same with those transkits... :)

Cheers Guys!! Means alot!
