Lamborghini Countach 5000s

[jabel]

Hello!
That's my new project. The 1:1 of this model is one of the most famous cars, so I have to build one. At the other hand that's an old, 082... serial Fujimi kits, ant it means that extream detailed, and the quality of the kit is extrem ... But it's a good challenge for me, and I hope that i'm going to bulid a really beauty, detailed and unique model.

firtst I put some parts onto the body:




it starts well, I'm going to have a little work...

Little update, I finished the work with the skirts. The wing, the doors and the hood are just dryfitting. I won't glue the wing onto the body I made holdes, and fit&glue with a little wire.





and I send you some really beautiful rims:

Hello!
I finished the paintwork with the parts so I could start the building.
The engine is a funny story, 'cose the Fujimi gives the LP400 version's for this car, and I got some parts from the 5000QV.


Afret some scratch I made something similar than the original one:







Of corse I want to made some mor details soon

Ant the first layer on the body:

But that's just a primer (after a real primer of corse ) before the MM metal color.

Looks great. Now i'm curious about the color.
From the part pixs on the other thread i though this was the QV version, but looking again now i see both sets of parts.

The engine and the suspension are their place. Now the body is in some plughole cleaner (??? :S), and I'm going to repaint it.

Thanks guys!
As fast as I can remove the paint from the body I'm going to make the paintjob. I'd like to carry it to the model competition in Prague

[jabel]

Hello!
I had to repaint it, so it took a little time. Now that's the result:



I used ricebox subaru blue, (it's a best paint what I'd ever used!) and finished with zero 2k. I didn't do any polishing,
