Archaeoattacus sp. cf trapobans /
Very colorful moth landed on my door just before nightfall, it was just as big as my hand.
Tropics
I did not attempt to pick it up because some have some form of poison that cause itching or rash..
I think this is Attacus atlas. Archaeoattacus has more sickle-like spots not these kind of spots as seen here and in Atlas:
