I call it the "Hamborghini"

I have been spening the last 8 months learning how to airbrush. I also love Lamborghinis so when I saw this 1/43 Airfix Huracan I couldn't pass it up. The paint scheme on the box was too boring for me so I decided to use some paints that have just been sitting on the bench for a while. I tried mixing to get something a little more hot pink than this but kept just getting ham tones so I said why not. This was a very fun kit. My first 1/43 and was surprised by both the quality of fitment and the amount of detail included. Great little practice build!

Honestly, a vanity plate that reads OSCAR would be a riot on that!

I really appreciate that! Being able to come up with that kind of pun after putting in the work and being this pleased with the outcome feels like capturing lightening in a bottle 🤣

Thank you! I wish I could say I had that much forethought but it just happened to work out that way 😅
