Allan-Herbie Report post Posted March 18, 2015 Im talking to a company that can model my Countach in 3d. Problem is if it gets too expensive I have another idea that is completely not Lamborghini related but extremely bad ass inmo.

Alan, That's been done hundreds of times, you can download a 3D model of a CT very easily for ~$100 http://www.creativecrash.com/3d-model/lamb...v-1985-3d-model Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cabbe Report post Posted March 18, 2015 Why not just buy a 3d model already available out there of the countach. Then you can always have a friend tweak the model to make it look exactly like yours. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan-Herbie Report post Posted March 18, 2015 Hmm.. I just spoke to the company and they told me a low detail model would cost 11 to 13k in 1:4 to 1:6 scale. A high detail model in excess of 50k.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

emanon Report post Posted March 18, 2015 How much would that cost to print? Depends how big. I can check with a few places and see if we can come up with reasonable prices. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Assman Report post Posted March 18, 2015 Depends how big. I can check with a few places and see if we can come up with reasonable prices. I'm more just curious. I'd assume 1/1 would have to be done in parts and assembled? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

emanon Report post Posted March 18, 2015 I'm more just curious. I'd assume 1/1 would have to be done in parts and assembled? Yes, and obscenely expensive. http://www.makepartsfast.com/2010/03/855/c...listic-model-t/ In the $10k price you could just buy the biggest machine available and print your own stuff. http://shop.re3d.org/collections/gigabot-3d-printer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

emanon Report post Posted March 18, 2015 $10k you could build a whole replicrap Arguably, the 3D printed version would look better, and you don't have a leaking fiero to deal with. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SingleSeat Report post Posted March 18, 2015 Ok, here's an idea for a wall...a paint puddle-like sculpt with the body of the car emerging from it. A very thick puddle, glossy, wet looking. Tell the wife that it's a pool of nail polish. tadaa. (click and look at the big version) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan-Herbie Report post Posted March 18, 2015 So on a side note, Ive come up with this idea which I stole from the 75 Million dollar Minecraft house... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan-Herbie Report post Posted March 18, 2015 I however would take it a step further.... I have always wanted a Porsche 550 Spyder rep, but somewhat scared to drive one... I would park it here, with the ass end towards the mirror at a slight angle towards the staircase. A huge Black and white image of James on the wall behind it... You can get a perfect replica, sans engine and transmission for around $20/25k.. The car is incredibly small at just 5 ft 1 inch wide, and 10 ft long...

AudiBull Report post Posted March 19, 2015 Yes, exactly how I would want it. Now this is an idea I can support! You should start a gofundme page and see who gets their new car paid for first. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
