Ralph_S Posted January 25, 2009 Posted January 25, 2009 I've been collecting lime green LEGO for quite a while now, but until recently I never had a sufficient quantity to use it for anything other than a small detail here and there. Then, in December last year I visited the LEGO store at LEGOLand Windsor and found loads of lime green plates in their PaB wall. I knew there and then what I was going to build. One of the few cars that look good in lime green: The Lamborghini Miura. For those of you who don't know it, it was the first sportscar built by Lamborghini and was first unveiled in 1966. I built it spread out over a period of a week or two, with an hour now and then in the evenings. About half the time was spent in getting the opening engine compartment and front to work. all pictures I'm really happy with how it turned out, and I hope you'll like it too. Cheers, Ralph Quote

WhiteFang Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 This is an absolute beauty. I never knew lime green could look so great in such a sleek vehicular design. As always, your mocs are very impressive. Quote
Ralph_S Posted February 4, 2009 Author Posted February 4, 2009 Thanks to all of you. I felt really happy that I had enough lime green to be able to do this and the Miura is one of the few cars that I know that actually look good in this colour. I am glad you like it. Cheers, Ralph Quote
