Metallic Posted April 8, 2016 Author Share Posted April 8, 2016 VERY nice job on an EXTREMELY fussy kit!! Q: where are the front side markers and rear hood vent?Thank you, in particular this model was really difficult to build specially the final assembly (chassis & body work) what a pain. The front side markers (I did not finish yet, jeje, thank you for the observation), Regarding the Rear Hood Vent, I preferred not to include it, I observe that some real lamborghinis do not have it.

The front side markers (I did not finish yet, jeje, thank you for the observation), Regarding the Rear Hood Vent, I preferred not to include it, I observe that some real lamborghinis do not have it.It does look great! -I've built about 4 of these in the past, and they never got easier. Unfortunately, if you wanted a detailed Countach kit this was your only option until now. I am now in the process of building the Aoshima Countach kit. You should give it a try -Its WAY better than Fujimis in most ways! Its only downfall is that it doesn't have a complete engine. Its more like 3/4 of the engine, but its done Extremely well! the valve covers and distributor are even pre-drilled for wires! When building mine, I've decided to put the Fujimis engine in the Aoshima kit! It actually fits pretty decent. Thanks for sharing this model, its my favorite car, and you did it justice! Keep the exotics coming!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WizPorsche944 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 (edited) Wow ! What a beautiful build. Seeing this makes me want to build one of mine. I own 3 of these & they always intimidated me so I never built any. Is this the 25th anniversary kit ? Looks like the wheels match.

This is the Lamborghini Countach 500 Quattrovalvole from enthusiast model (see picture) The 25th anniversary is a little different, but as well a great car to build!

Intmd8r Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 I remember building the Testors version of this car as a kid in teh same color combination. Needless to say, my build was not at the same level as this one.Nice work - got to be the nicest and most detailed version I've ever seen of this car in scale form!SC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
