BumbleAnt Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 These are possibly two of my best models to date. The Countach is a Tamiya LP500S, painted with a spary can of Peugeot titanium and Halfords clear laquer. The Diablo is a Revell VT and was painted with Hycote purple velvet double acrylic. I had this left over from when I painted a Diablo R/C car many years ago. It was lightly sanded down and polished, then treated with Revell Aqua clear coat through the airbrush. I think I should have applied a few more coats of laquer to the Diablo and then sanded and polished it again and I know the Countach would have looked better with the same treatment, but I'm still learning and as Lamborghini is my favourite manufacturer I didn't want to ruin them. It just means I'll have to build some more when I've learnt a bit more I'll take some better photos when we finally see some sunshine 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shood23 Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Both great cars but i do hold a bit of a soft spot for the diablo so naturally I prefer that one also the purple is lovely Shaun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
