Re: Countach!! 1/12 LP400

It turned out fantastic, I didn't like the wheels in the beggining but now they look more and more ok to me. Grey and red combo is looking good to.
Great work, I know it is hard to make 1/12 model look realistic but you did a very good job.

That looks just great! Looking forward to the outdoor pics - is there a hint of bronze green in that grey?

bestest,

I think you can sum up the whole build in pic 10 (engine interior).

Very nice.

Great build... Also saw the WIP. I am lost for the word...
I can't wait to see the pictures taken outdoor.

There shouldn't be any bronze/green in it, but the artificial light gives it that appearance. The best pic for color here is the close up of the wheel. In sunlight it really shows well. I was hoping to get some outdoor pics but its been very windy & dusty here lately. Under normal light, indoors, it looks nearly black.

Thanks! Still waiting for decent weather for some outdoor pics in natural light, which will hopefully capture it a bit better...
