In Progress - Lamborghini Gallardo

I started this car last weekend. I don't have a lot of progress to show, but the body has been prepped, primed, and painted.

I used Cobra Colors - Lambo Thirty paint on this car. It's a very metallic purple. This has not been cleared or polished yet.

I may use the clear engine cover on this car. It will depend on how the curbside engine bay looks after some detailing.

Those may not be the wheels I use. I just mocked up the car with them to see what some modern 19's would look like under this car.

That vintage color should look pretty good on it. My vote would be to make the engine insert as detailed as possible and use the clear hood. The rims look awesome-but I'm prejudiced since they're the ones on mine .

the combination looks very nice to me - i'm acually drooling a little bit I'm sure this is going to be a really nice build and look forward to seeing it develop

PS I'm envious of you guys in the US that can get access to Cobra Colours I'd love to try these but I guess there's no way for them to be shipped to EU

Wow, that's alot darker than I expected Lambo Thirty would come out. Maybe because of indoor lighting. Just looking at CC's offerings makes me want to build a Lambo, though! (May have to do a Diablo in Viola Ophelia.... )

Looking forward to seeing it come along!

I'm a big fan of that Diablo color. It should look right at home on the Gallardo too. I like the way it's shaping up!

Re: In Progress - Lamborghini Gallardo

Thanks guys!

I cleared this car last night. The color and metallics will look awesome after polishing. The clear coat came out a bit orange peely, but will easily polish out.

I ordered 3 new sets of 19" wheels, and will most likely go with some Kranze LXZ's on this build.

Re: In Progress - Lamborghini Gallardo

I saw a Gallardo in, of all places, Lafayette Louisiana just this past Tuesday. Made me want to build a model of it. Then I see it here on AF, made by you, and I think, "Best to leave that up to the pros."
