Pocher: Aventador Questions

[KRAFTIG]

Hi guys, working on my own Pocher project. If you like to see my progress please review the threads here:

The kit is based on what is presented by Pocher, there are no updates to the build. I must say I'm quite impressed with the craftsmanship and imagination I've seen from some here, GREAT WORK!

I've had my own frustration with the kit in areas, but overall a great kit I would recommend.

1) A few questions for the members. Where in North America can I find the exterior paint Arancio Argos?

2) What is a GREAT on-line Hobby Shop to by supplies?

3) Anyone know of a custom display case manufacture they trust?

TIA!

Scale Finishes carries all the Aventador colors...this is actual paint used on the real car..(they have a Canadian distributor Elm City Hobbies..its the only way to get shipped within Canada...you'll need for 4 bottles to cover the entire car...
Sprue Brothers for hobby supplies
Pocher has their own display case for the Aventador...anything else would have to be custom made or an Ikea display unit.

When it comes to display cases, I trust German manufacturer Sudu-Acryl. Excellent quality. They even have cases for 1:8 scale model cars.

Here's the link (unfortunately, the only available language is German):

I think this will be a useful display case: Acrylhaube 70 x 30 x 20 cm mit oder ohne Kabeldurchlass (http://sudu-shop.de/de/sudu-Acrylhauben/Haubensystem-mit-ueber-130-vorbereiteten-Groessen-bzw.-Varianten/Acrylhaube-70-x-30-x-20-cm-mit-oder-ohne-Kabeldurchlass)

Is there a bottom piece to these cases?...Or do you have to make your own base?

I'd like one where I can display the doors in open position.

A display base made from black acryl is available for all offered display cases as an option.

I have four customized display cases from Sudu Acryl so far, all four of them with the black base plate. They are 100% dust proof.

You can customize the dimensions to your individual requirements, so a case that allows you to display your Lambo with open doors will no problem.

I will definitely order a customized case for my Aventador, too. I don't like that "squeezed inside" look that comes with the Pocher display case, which in my opinion is way to small.

Here are two of the display cases that I have in my "man cave". Both with the dust proof base plate, both custom made to my requirements (dimensions).
