    Because I managed to make CLAAS tires 110mm in diameter represent 710/70R38 tire for one (planned) future model that will fit the Unimog U423 scale, I've decided to make 1:17.5 model. Another reason for "playing" with CLAAS tire dimensions is that most beautiful models here are in (unwritren rules) 1:13 or 1:17.5 scale... Currently I'm rebuilding chassis to fit this scale and to install e-motor to look like fuel tank...When I'll finish chassis I'll make final decision about tires and I'll post images here. (I know there is to many I'll in this post).

    If you continue that way, you'll end buildung under microscope . For your creations there should be special subtheme MicroTechnic

    I admit, that Gallardo is better suited for LEGO panels (specially rear part is very well done by you), but Countach was model that inspired me the most when I was a kid (now I'm 44) so I have some plans to make Countach, but need to see which tires - probably Unimog tires, and because of some ideas that I have model will be on drawing board when I manage to find additional 500€ for this project - need them for heart of every Lamborghini - V12 engine - that is all I can say at the moment...I did not finish my 67 mustang due to lack of (black) panels...

    I know it is not cheap. I was planing to chrome 32004a wheels, but it is to expensive...You can buy 20kg or more LEGO Technic for this amount of pounds. But purple would be very dinamyc and cool at zhe same time...

    I know that it is Countach and not just any - it is first ptotoype which had cooling problems, but had great futuristic shape, 14" tires, etc...

    Despite that I'm a bit old school when LEGO is about, but I completely agree that it would be nice to have 2.4 GHz remote system. As you meant lets wait and see or to say it is better to be safe than sorry

    Just one comment to admins (who are reading our comments) - would it be better to include posts of this topic in this one. From my point of view to recolor model in metallic silver (or as @Jurss correctly pointed out - usage of chromed parts) is more suited to modifications of Porsche 911 GT3 RS model Nevertheless, Idea to have metallic silver Porsche is very cool.

    Black rims would be perfect for military truck what set 42070 actually represents, specially Dark Tan in combination with black rims now you have solved the mystery, just remember sets 8479 https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemInv.asp?S=8479-1 8275 https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemInv.asp?S=8275-1 and now 42070

    Thank you very much, despite my interest in this model Now you understand why I need some panels in yellow that are not available (yet)
  14. 1gor
    OK, I've asked this because I have some ideas about tire stretching etc, to post them in topic dealing with ideas..
  15. 1gor
    What do you mean under ideas, can you please describe it in more details? Thank you.

    WOW, This is really great tow truck, such nice color combination, very nice details and chromed parts - if you do not look closely enough (and see sloped parts and characteristic 24 X 43 rims), you could think that this photos are photos of a real truck in some studio . I must admit this model impressed me so much that I've decided to make tow truck of one U.S. classic as Technic model. I bow to artist @Dennis Bosman

    I you have time that video in 1080p will be nice
  18. 1gor
    That is correct, so lots of our projects remain unfinished because we want to make good models for existing vehicles or other stuff that we use as inspirations... Talking about "42070 color", we got panels that are (mostly) exclusive to Technic, but liftarms can be used in other LEGO Themes. What is very positive is that wheel racing medium 56 X 34 is available in light bluish gray, black, red and yellow so we have variety of new possibilities (now we only need lime green ) https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=15038#T=C

    It looks much better now ...my version of super-car will be yellow (some day when there will be available parts in yellow that I need)
  20. 1gor
    ...at least you have fun in snow...I agree with @Jurss 240p is not something most representative, but I look at this just as early stage of project...
  21. 1gor
    Just one thing - I've noticed that some light bluish gray 16 tooth gears reinforced (within 8110 set) and some dark bluish gray differentials have different shades, so I have one question @Jim - does this discussion include gears or just group of parts that you have organized in list above? Thanks
  22. 1gor
    Splitting this discussion about colors into new separate topic is not bad idea at all, or to rename this topic in General Part and Part Color Discussion Yes indeed, but @Jim has a point - probably 20% of our posts here are dealing with colors and color-related (OK new) parts
  23. 1gor
    It looks good in orange. I think color usage is in correlation to price for plastic granules used to make LEGO parts. Remember sudden change from old light gray to light bluish gray and old dark gray to dark bluish gray. Not to mention newer shades of yellow etc...
  24. 1gor
    Or (Ford) GT40 in gulf livery
  25. 1gor
    now we have 50 shades of azure , so my Unimog will remain orange (not Oranje)
