After get the first prize for my highly detailed Ferrari Enzo in "Italian Job", a competition in a modelling forum, I wanted to do something simple just for fun. So I decided to make my variation of Gallardo using as base the Fujimi kit #12259, Lamborghini Gallardo by Sportec DX. From the beginning I wasn’t making a copy of a specified car. The key in this build was to take a little from various Gallardo versions and make my own and that looks good.

 


The Fujimi kit isn’t very detailed so is good for a quick, relaxing build. The engine bay is very simple you might even say “poor” and the engine itself is made only as a upper half moulded with the bay.

 

Interior is quite good detailed and the parts nicely fit together – no problems here.

 

Big problem is that in the rear the chassis and the body doesn’t fit well. I had to use a lot of force and CA glue to hold the together in correct position.

 

Acu-Stion parts for the Gallardo are a total waste of money. Parts poorly fit with the model and there is no instruction at all so you have to guess what to do with all of the parts. This set contains windshield wipers which have a completely different curvature than the windshield.

 

Lamborghini emblems – no problems here.
