For Carrera 3.2, I can vouch for Garnet Red Metallic or Cassis Red Metallic. Both are stunning colours.

Yes, and it was the one that won the GTE Pro title on 2018 edition of Le Mans 24. The Rothmans ones was the one who had a 2-laps duel against Chip Ganassi Ford GT with Gianmaria Bruni behind the wheel.

This in Rossi's no. 46 WRT livery for GT World Challenge is an absolute gem.

If I remembered correctly he owned a home in USA, but I don't remember exactly where.

Hmmmmmm was it Danny Ric? I don't remember if he got that Gulf 720S after winning 2021 Italian GP but I do remember he got 765LT.

Seriously, just build a Tamiya kit instead of Aoshima's Pagani line-up (though if they do release a Huayra Roadster I might be tempted to build it in the spec of the Huayra Roadster that my acquaintance owned). Got a Carrera GT, a Nismo ZTune and an LFA waiting to be built. As well as Aoshima's R35 VSpec but compared to Zonda that one's a minnow.

I am not a fan of Gordon Murray (more of a Steve Nichols kind of guy) but not gonna lie I want that GMA T.50 kit. Will probably do one in Genesis Blue to replicate the spec on the F1JOY-registered McLaren F1 and P1JOY-registered McLaren P1. Which means dark blue overall interior with red driver seat.

Yes. I pulled the trigger on the Zonda. My local suppliers has yet to import one so I went to my friend and ordered one through Yahoo Auction. I've heard horrid things about Aoshima's Pagani Huayra kit and many have said that Zonda suffered the same issues as well. After building it for 2 months, I can safely say it does suffer the same issue. For whatever wisdom they have, the chassis rear end is a millimeter shorter than it should. Which means, if built as it is, the rear cowling basically won't shut even if you drop an anvil on it. The solution: Glue extra plasticards before fitting the rear bumper. Another problem: The front cowling won't shut. Shaving and applying plasticards roughly did the job but I can only do so much. And then the door won't fit. I swear to God this kit tried to fight me for every solution I found for its problem. Also, this is my first time ever using carbon decals, from HobbyMio. Was not a fan, too thick, hard to conform. In the end if I did this kind of job to an actual Pagani Zonda at Pagani factory in San Cesario Sul Panaro, Horacio himself would have trounced me and stuck my head on a fence. As for the spec, I was inspired by the Zonda ZoZo, a one-off Zonda owned by Yusaku Maezawa, and Lewis Hamilton's old Zonda 760LH. Hence the Viola LH colour, concocted from Mr. Color GX's Metallic Purple with Mr Crystal Color Topaz Gold and Sapphire Blue pearl flakes mixed in. In real life, under strong light, looks fantastic. In photo, with lighting from my phone? Looks like purple. Not good at documenting my progress, I know. Now the end result: Verdict: A 6.5/10. I was happy with the detail but definitely not happy with the fitment. Also, to keep all those body panels from dismantling itself from the chassis, turning my Zonda into a rolling chassis, I applied magnets. Everywhere. Was a botched job, but that's as much as I can do. Not touching Aoshima kit again for the next 6 months, after the Zonda and the Murcielago SV (which is a better kit engineering-wise). Ordered a Tamiya LFA kit from my friend (who is currently in Japan) as a mode of relaxation therapy, will be picking it up next week.

This is gonna be my first post here... at least ones that are about model kit that is. This project started back in August 2021, but by September it was kind of shelved after I painted the entire shell. Reasons? A lot of reason. Mostly work-related stuffs, having to do meeting and making business plan kind of took my attention. But a few weeks ago I suffered mental breakdown and just couldn't be bothered to do my usual work of making car-related contents. And then I got COVID 3 weeks ago. Since I can't do anything I decided to dust up the NSX kit and finish it early last week, after spending an entire day at hospital to take care of my gramps who got COVID recently (his symptoms are very mild, though, so that's a bit of a relief). Anyway, the kit. It is very much enjoyable to make, typical Tamiya's shake-and-bake quality. If there are fit issues, it was self-inflicted. Like the windows, for example. I made a little bit of a mess with the all-purpose adhesive, but at least it did not fog up the transparent parts... unlike what happened to the right-side headlight cover. The colour of choice is Indy Yellow Pearl, arguably the best colour for the new NC1 NSX (and especially the NSX Type-S). Started with base coat of Yellow FS13538, followed by Mr Crystal Colour Topaz Gold and extra layer of yellow clear coat, this colour looks absolutely stunning in sunlight. However, sunlight hasn't been around for a while in Bandung so I went for a 'studio' photoshoot. Which is just my kitchen table cleaned from my previous work on cooking cream soup. The car itself? Call me weird, but I really like the new NSX, especially after seeing two in real life. I know everyone wants the new NSX to be just an old NSX but new, but if that's what people want then why not buy an old NSX? Besides, the old NA1 and NA2 NSX wasn't exactly a sales success anyway, with people going for Ferrari and Porsche instead. Kinda sad having to see the NC1 NSX soon to be euthanised with the upcoming Type-S (and we can't even get one outside North America and Japan). Anyway, rant is over and here's your pic.

Hello everyone, my name's Tyas and I'm new to this forum. Have been doing model kits since 2007 when I was a middle-school boy, my main line-up was once aircrafts (1/72 or bust). However, being a die-hard petrolhead since I was 3 years old, I couldn't just let opportunities of doing car kit go away, so now I do a lot of cars as well. Most of them are road-going supercars, since F1 kits are hard to come by in Indonesia these days. Not without costing me arms and legs that is. Anyway, can't wait to share more photos of my works, but I have to admit I'm not good at taking WIP photos, so it'll mostly be on finished sections.
