I am one of the few that cannot stand the art of liftarms and pin connectors over flex axles. I say art, because to me this isn't really building and is instead a form of "sculpting". This style reminds me of aluminum pie pans and macaroni necklaces.

But overall the car does look very nice.

I like it very much. Even the wheelarches do stand out a bit to much, I think it somehow adds to the aggressive character. I also don't mind that the bodywork panelink is lnow particularly smooth and has a diverse part selection - in the end I think it blends together nicely. Cool lights, cool doors (could be less like a catapult blast though :D ), great overall look. Very well done!

A form of sculpting and art.... that's the best compliment ever!

I too was a fan of the lights. I figured as I was modelling  the Lykan Hypersport, the lights would have to stand out. Yes, the doors could be deadly, but that's the price millionaires must pay to take a ride in my car! Lol :laugh:

Someone mentioned the front bumper would look awesome in black. I tried that out and must say, I might like this look a bit better...

Yes! Make it black! Looks more, hm, badass.

 I feel the color combo chosen below looks a bit more like the real car. I need your help to pick which grill is best. Black grill, red grill, black in the middle, or the original red?

Lol I never thought of Lykan as a smaller company, but your right if it is compared to Ferrari, Porsche or Lamborghini.

I have the same difficulty in showing the wifey that this hobby isn't nerdy ?, but actually is a well recognized design platform for creative minds!

This is pretty recognizable. My wife always explains about Eurobricks with: "they even share pictures of their desks and storage boxes" :laugh:, but when I tell her my latest WIP topic has 37k views in 3 months (of which I claim about 10K :wink:) she falls off her chair :classic:.

Very recognizable. Although I have to admit I also had to convince myself before stepping into this nerdy hobby again after roughly 30 years... :grin:

(boys will be boys, especially if they have a technical background, I guess... :wink:)

Yes, the pictures of desks and storage is one thing my wife picked up on too. Funny what others think of it!

I'll be starting the tear down this weekend... I've prepared my desk and am ready to begin. 

Some last photos before shes gone... I'm gonna miss her!

Very cool design, I really love how you "closed" the body work. It's hard to achieve this with the Technic panels but you did a great job.

Cool that's shared this build...well deserved!
