István Szücs
Great job! What colors did you use for the interior?
22 July 2021, 08:41
Peter Hardy
Thanks Istvan! I used SMS lacquers, Tan for the seats and interior, dashboard top is Wine Red. Flocking is a dark yellow.

Thanks Brandon. Let's see if I can get the body right!

Having seen you up close Pete, I'd say you might need some body work!

Thank you young Skywalker. 2K is done, Now there is a five day wait for it to harden in this weather. Thinking about starting a seventies Kawasaki road bike or perhaps a Brabham F2 car or even a 1910 Renault London taxi cab. Ahhh, the problems with having a stash.

Thanks Jonn, best result I've ever got with doing a carpet. A few stuff ups with the engine, had to pull it apart twice but some lessons learned. On the final run now, clear coat is applied but needs sanding and polishing then final assembly. Should have it done in two weeks! I hope!

Not baby diarrhoea again, I hope?

The interior is very nicely done. The sense of detail is more than noticeable. UMP primer, new to me. If the finishing is as smooth as the primering, this baby Lambo will look like the bul it is

Jonn, I used Tan for the interior and wine red for the dashboard top. The body shell I have done wth 80% - 20 mix of orange and Italian red. Very seventies!

Martin, take up the colour with Lamborghini, it's their colour. Very close to Dutch Orange.

Lode, I have tried a Shiite load of different primers and now use UMP almost exclusively. Ask Kezza his opinion of it. He said he would do a review of it for Scalemates after QMEA was done and dusted.

Peter Hardy
Sorry Jonn, forgot to tell you I have used SMS 2k. It doesn't settle and self level as well as their lacquers but it does sand down oh so evenly. I will post some pics of the clear coat after I have levelled it out a bit! Kerry Cox I am not!

Rod -

Peter, we all loved that car at the time and were eager to have it in our quartet game (who remembers those card remedies?) Looking forward to see this beauty in a display

Peter Hardy
All done! Very happy with the colours and with the lessons learned.

Beautiful!! Congrats Peter to your amazing result!

What a beauty Pete - very well done.
You and I have talked previously about our favourite specialists in their modelling niches (you know who you are!), yet you turn out fantastic boats, trucks, tanks, sci-fi and now, cars. All while modestly saying you are still learning ... mate, once again your great skills are on display here.

spot on Peter, looks great!!

Peter Hardy
Herr Klink, thank you, very happy with the outcome!
Jay Dub, sand shoes my southern friend. A bike is next, OOB. We will see what I can do without clever tricks!
Thanks Matty! Wonderful kit, complex but not impossible to get an acceptable result.

Brandon H
Nicely done Peter!! Great pick on the color too, exactly as loud as a Lamborghini should be!

Spanjaard
Simply awesome, Peter. I love it. I wish I could see it in person!
7 August 2021, 14:21
Jay Dubya
That bike had better be the one that caused a hundred PM's just in its search, Pete. No doubt you won't be able to hold back on the clever stuff either.

A legendary car and your build do all credit to the legend it is. Well done, Peter

Not many better ways to start a Sunday morning than to browse through one of your Lambo builds. Stunning work Peter
