Good day everyone, I needed a little break from a certain "out of my comfort zone" project I'm stuck in and also needed something more colorful than my usual 50 shades of grey aircraft and so I went for my absolute dream car and probably the only Pagani Zonda I'll ever be able to afford As this is my first car build in like 20 years and my first Aoshima kit ever, it kinda stayed in the "out of comfort" zone but it was an absolute pleasure building this kit. The precision with which this kit was engineered totally baffled me and that the build replicates the making of the actual car is a neat little feature for fans, who really are deep into the building process of Pagani and the mechanics of the Zonda. Needless to say, the build was a massive joy. The car goes together very well, even the rear frame with the engine, which seemed a bit fragile at first but it all got sorted out once it was bolted to the floor and the bulkhead of the cockpit. The only fitment issues I had is the rear clamshell, which seems to be warped a bit so it leaves a little gap on one side while closed. Of course that could be rectified by gluing it in place but hiding all the details of the engine wouldn't do it any justice, so I rather park it on my shelf with the gap facing the wall so nobody needs to know it's there And from time to time just prep it open with the metal shafts provided by the kit. It mostly was painted with brush and different Vallejo and Revell paints, for the body Tamiya's Chrome Yellow from a can was used, for the carbon fiber bits Tamiya's semi gloss black. So now I have my favorite supercar in my dream spec on my shelf, I call that a win I also need to get the Huayra at some point, the successor for the Zonda. I love both cars, so it's a given the Huayra will join my collection but the Zonda will always have a special place in my heart. And that's about it. Thanks for watching, hope you like it and have a nice day

The Aoshima Vertex Ridge kit turned into a fairly standard spec r Silvia, which is one of my favourite cars. Probably need a few more practice goes on basic models before attempting anything exotic. I thought the separate springs were really cool.
