I’m going with a Tamiya blue...I thought about sourcing the right blue from Hiroboy but another builder here used the Tamiya color and it looks great to me.

I think TS44 Brilliant Blue is a close match for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really need to move all my cars forward, but I keep getting distracted. Yesterday was paint day so I did a lot of spraying of 4 cars. Part of last week was spend dealing with a screw in my tire and the previous week was rebuilding the dryer so laundry could get finished.

Couldn't agree more. Plus it's always a nice touch when you can build something out of the main stream offerings.

Tommy124 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Hi Will, that Benz is coming along great! And I fully agree not to go for that rather boring box stock livery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, William...that's sounds exactly like my life for the past three months....right down to the painting thing!....I have five or six kit interiors to paint VERY soon, and we had to put new tyres on our REAL jeep!....weird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm anxious to get moving on the models and even more anxious to see what you do with a color on the Pagani Huayra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ich_Will Posted November 26, 2018 Author Share Posted November 26, 2018 Suspension and brakes are on. And I’ve started the interior. I didn’t care for the buttons on the center console. It’s hard to tell from the photos but I used heated drill bit to recess them to look more like the real thing. A little paint should help too but my eyes are tired.
