Dann Tier Posted June 30, 2018 Posted June 30, 2018 Hey, everyone!, This is my Fujimi Lamborghini Reventon build......obviously...lol, Even though its only a curbside, I will be detailing the interior to make it look like the real car, since things are missing, or not done right. I even have a technique that replicates Lamborghinis special leather called; Alcantara. I will also show how I take a one-piece engine, and still make it look convincingly real. Hope you enjoy!
Dann Tier Posted June 30, 2018 Author Posted June 30, 2018 I rarely do what the instructions tell me, and this time is no different, so I will be starting with the interior...I had to make a handle on the center column that was missing, as well as triangular holes in the seats corners. O the dash, there was an open space in the handle that needed to be filled, so I shaped some styrene strip, and glued it in. Using Plasti Zap, I filled sink holes in the interior tub, and the headrests of the seats...
bisc63 Posted June 30, 2018 Posted June 30, 2018 Ooooh, I'm liking this. This is one of my favorite "supercars." Going to do the silver/gray color as pictured?

Thanks, Rusty!, the first photo is gonna be the kolor, yes. I think it looks better than the traditional Matte Grey.
Ich_Will Posted June 30, 2018 Posted June 30, 2018 Nice. Can’t wait to see this coming together. Your builds are out of this world.
jchrisf Posted June 30, 2018 Posted June 30, 2018 Awesome.. I love me some Lambos. If you could get some pics of some of your masking I would appreciate it

Dann Tier Posted June 30, 2018 Author Posted June 30, 2018 Got another interior update here; Made a template for the firewall padding, cut out the slides for the seatbelt adjusters, cut the seatbelt slots out, and got rid of those molded-in peddles!! -Next step will be Scratchbuilding the correct peddles, and kleaning everything up for paint!

Dann Tier Posted July 1, 2018 Author Posted July 1, 2018 I've decided that i'm not totally happy with my firewall padding, so I am going to redo it with a bit thicker piece of sheet styrene.....same technique though.
FabbricaP Posted July 1, 2018 Posted July 1, 2018 Coming along nicely Dann, looking forward to this one. Btw, what thickness is that sheet styrene you’re using?
cmfowler Posted July 2, 2018 Posted July 2, 2018 Looking good so far. Looking forward to seeing how it turns out
da_ashman Posted July 3, 2018 Posted July 3, 2018 Looking good!!! Love the Reventon, I'm planning on building another now that you can get the special colour used (last time i settled for a NFS police version), so watching closely!!!
