Murcielago R-SV Blancpain -WIP

It always starts with washing... 

Because most parts are splitted, panel-lines only exist where they are marked. 

There was a lot of shrinkage in several places, so a lot of sanding work was required. 

The muffler was removed of its plating and thinned down. 

Since I had to paint it in two-tone black/white, I first painted the white surfacer, and painted the wheels with 'Tamiya Dark Iron'. I painted the gold with 'Gaianotes Starbright Gold', but I don't like the color. 🙁 

Looking at the parts to be painted black, the side mirrors have no attachment pins or holes and no indication of where they should be attached. 

The doors are movable, I was 100% sure they would detached during assembly, so I installed attachment pins. 

Masked it to paint it black. 

Painted black surfacer. (body shell too) 

And painted gloss black. 

Painted AK Super Chrome to air funnel.
The gold color kept bugging me, so I repainted it with GSW's gold color.
I'm happy that it's the 18k gold color I wanted.
 

The ceramic brake discs are painted in No.5 carbon color. I think it's the perfect color. 

Masked once more. 

I painted Stainless Silver, Flat Aluminium. 

Then I painted Burnt Iron after last masking.
And painted Gloss Black for paint carbon pattern. 

I painted carbon pattern with stocking.
The center fascia is a mess, but I'll ignore it since it won't show up well once it's done. Other parts have a slightly good pattern.
