  1. Simply perfect!!!!
  2. Love the look of this!!.....great detail all 'round!!!
  3. VERY well done!!! -The spokes in this kit are actually done REALLY well! -my wife has this kit.....I'm gonna show this to her, and maybe it will get her to build again! -thanks for sharing!!
  4. Very cool!!! ......isn't that shipping great?!!.....when I order stuff from N.Y., it takes 4 weeks!!!!!, and i'm only in Michigan!!!
  5. Oh, and the lights do flip open, and it is set up for if you want working light all-way-round.
  6. I built this kit, its actually a pretty sweet kit!, but it does have a problem....the tyres are toxic......they ate my wheels away!!
  7. I don't do commissioned builds anymore either.....or competitions, like you, its time to build for myself. My wife has convinced me to post a video of fixing the fitment issues of the Huayra. I think I have the problems fixed, while keeping all the parts plus more detail. I think I will only post it if it actually works though......not much sense in it if it doesn't, lol.
  8. Just wanted to say that I hope I didn't come across as a "Pratt" with my responses, that wasn't my intention, I really do like your work and this kit. I also really appreciate you and everybody else that does these WIP's -its something I don't think I could do, because when I'm into a build, i'm like a steamroller...I keep barreling through with the momentum. You are right, you don't really know a kit unless you start building it.....like anything in life. I have actually been working on putting the Fujimi engine IN my Aoshima kt, and I must say, its fitting pretty darn good with very minute adjustments so far. Its a little on the backburner right now because I'm half way through my Pagani Huayra, but the Countach will be finished next. -Again, keep up the great work!!!!
  9. Looking OUTSTANDING!!!!!!
  10. You are doing a great job, on this EXTREMELY fussy kit!!!! -Just a suggestion though, when you do get to the step of attaching the wheels and tyres, I wouldn't try to use the screws to screw them on.....you may bust the entire rear suspension trying to do it. Sadly, its happened to me a few times, so I decided to drill-out the holes bigger so that the screws just slid-in, like the pins that other kits use. Keep up the great work!!
  11. Having built 20 of these Fujimi Contach's, and now having the Aoshima kit as well, I've decided that the Aoshima is a WAAAAAAAAY better kit than the Fujimi's. The only problem with the Aoshima, is that it doesn't have a complete engine, and suspension. One could write a book about how much better the Aoshima kit is, but Fujimis only claim to being better, is having a complete motor. One of my HUGE issues with their Countach kits is that out of the 20 kits I've built, ALL 20 had the shittiest clear parts I have EVER seen in a kit, and it cant be polished-out, because the marks are injection swirls that go all the way through the parts. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Fujimi kits, but the Aoshima kit is far better. With ALOT of careful work, the Fijimi Countach can look great, but with a heck of a lot of IMO.
  12. Looking GOOOOOD!!!!, The Countach is my all-time favorite car....the 5000 QV to be exact, its good to see another build of this car! -I will definitely be looking in!!
  13. Looks OUTSTANDING!!!!!
  14. I agree 100%! -keep up the great work!!!.......you're on the home-stretch!
  15. LOOKING GOOD!!!!
  16. Pretty sweet!!!!!! -love it!!!!
  17. Pretty darn realistic!!!!!!! -excellent craftsmanship!!!
  18. Really outstanding weathering!!!!, and that engine bay detail is wow!!!!
  19. NICE job!!!....Great work all-way-round!!!!
  20. Excellent details and craftsmanship throughout!!!, refreshing to see an engine I haven't seen here before as well!!!
  21. Excellent build!!!!.....love the hood stripes, and the engine bay especially!!!
  22. Nice, I stopped using Alclad; I think the Spaz stix is WAAAY better, and its way more durable.
  23. Nothing to criticize, looks outstanding!!!
  24. I could stare at this all day........outstanding job!!!! -I have a couple of these as well. Q: what did you use to paint the wheels?, and if you ever need extra decals for the Martini version, I have an extra kit, I will be building mine as a road car.
  25. Excellent work........LOVE it!!!!
