LOL, its crazy isn't it....

Here are a couple of parts that I forgot to post.....looking at the rear corners of the cowl, you can see where I added the brackets for the micro magnets. If you look closely, you can also see that I ground-away the rear positioning points of the fender-wells, so that you can still slide them into place.

Thanks, Jason!, I don't think they stopped production of it.....did you order your kit through a hobby shop?....I tried to support our local hobby shop, until a year after I ordered mine through them, so I decided to just get it from Hobby Link...….got it in like ten days. The photo-etch set is very nice, other than having Zonda pedals. I hope your build goes great!!

Hey, everyone!, Great news; I finally have the last bits done that allows me to start actually painting the body parts!! Here I have the front, and rear cowl hinges together.....I had to create the shock-ends with styrene rod, and I added styrene "rings" to the rear splash guards, so that the micro magnets I glued to the ends of plastic rods, can adjust up, and down to get the right gapping with the rear bumper. Just glue still when you get that proper gapping! My next move is painting the body!!!

Got a bunch more done tonight, all I have left to do before I paint the body, is to etch both sides of the gas-fill door, assemble the kit provided factory hinges, and make the brackets for the micro-magnets on the rear cowl!!!

Well, I had one of those days that while sanding those tiny cowl, and door catches, I broke them. Its all good though, because the new ones look even better!!….here they are....

Lol......i'm not a professor, just someone who LOVES to create art!! I'm glad you have the kit, and that I can help.....I could feel everyones frustration, and I knew I could help. I am actually going to send MANY photos to Aoshima to show them how it shoulda been done, and i'm even contemplating sending photos to Heracio himself. If he only knew how this kit was designed, I think he would be shocked......

Thhanks, Chad!, I try to just use styrene from Evergreen, or Plastruck as much as possible when I scratchbuild. the screws are photo-etch. By the way; hows your Pagani going?
