    I LOVE these cars!!, and you did an outstanding job of it!!!
  2. Dann Tier
    Like everyone has said to one degree or another......absolutely STUNNING job!!!

    LOL!!, thanks, bud!!...the real thing ISNT very refined, that's for sure, but I very rarely build for total replication. I like to "improve" things to my liking, lol If anybody is watching this hoping to see a Countach as it comes out of the factory, you are gonna be VERY disappointed...sorry. The idea for this build, is the one of two Twin Turbo prototype cars, but even so, i'm gonna take it WAAAAAY beyond that, to a "Could of Been" prototype. This was an idea inspired during the research into the Pagani Huayra. This Countach will be built to look like a car that is constructed from several extremely lightweight materials...same as Pagani's, which use special lightweight metals, and 15 different types of Carbon Fiber. I will be calling this Lamborghini the Bugatti Killer. This Countach will have at least two turbos.....four if I can get them in there, larger updated Carbon Ceramic brakes, and very possibly AWD. I'm glad you're liking it, I hope you still want to follow along, even though I cant leave stuff alone...lol

    Thanks a lot, Jonathan!!, i'm glad you are liking it!!…..I only have two more things to do to finish the interior now...painting/installing the floormats, and adding an interior over-the-head light.
  5. Dann Tier
    Hey, everyone!, this interior is almost done too! Just need to add the gauges, seatbelts, and SB floormats. Should be done in a day or so!

    Its looking amazing!!, I here ya on the size....this 1/12 Countach is the first large scale I've ever built too. Thought it would be the only one, but I now have a Tamiya 1/12 Porsche 935 that I will build as a RUF Porsche.

    This is gonna be COOL-CRAZY!!!

    It feels good to have this interior finished, and whilst it was fun, it felt like I could build a complete 1/24 car in the same amount of time, lol. -Photo 1; whenever I do gauges, I try to use my self-adhesive .15 high-gloss, clear acitate. Here I have cut out the decals, stuck the acitate to them, burnished them down, and for this situation, I cut them as square, instead of my usual (cutting them right to the decal themselves), and then gluing them in from the front with canopy glue. -Photo 2: this just shows the Acitate. The next step will be dipping them in water to get the backings off, and then making sure the back is dry before gluing them on. These were glued from the back side with canopy glue mixed with flat black acrylic paint. -Photo 3; All ready to go in!

    Next will be painting the black bezels. This part will be on tomorrow, and it will be nice to FINALLY call the interior done!

    Having posting issues today.
  15. Dann Tier
    It really is a great show!!, I wonder how many out there watch a film, or TV show while building the car/cars featured in it?....I sure do!, I may only play it for background noise, but I think it helps...
  16. Dann Tier
    LOL.....NICE!!!!

    Dann Tier replied to Ich_Will's topic in Model Cars

    I TOTALLY agree!!!, and it took GUTS to build it this way!!!....Purists will be going mental!!!
  18. Dann Tier
    FANTASTIC job!!…..my favorite look for these cars!!
  19. Dann Tier
    OUTSTANDING as usual, bud!!!
  20. Dann Tier
    Freaking BEAUTIFUL, bud!!!
  21. Dann Tier
    Absolutely STUNNING build, and backdrop!!!....LOVE these Ferrari's!!!
  22. Dann Tier
    Thanks, bud!!, I always built just one at a time, then recently started 8, now I've decided 4 is a good number. Its not that I couldn't handle 8, it was the fact that it took a whole year just to get ONE of them done, and i'm not getting anywhere that way. I don't really feel like I'm in a hurry, but the future is uncertain, and i'll be buggered if my kits/builds go to people who don't care, and there are certain cars that I HAVE TO BUILD before I check-out!!
  23. Dann Tier
    It really is a BEAUTIFUL build, bud!!….and its WHITE!!!!!!
  24. Dann Tier
    This is gonna be SWEET!!!, i'll be watching!!
  25. Dann Tier
    Much appreciated, JC!!….most of the time its fun as heck!!!
