Finally finished this kit. It is the Fujimi Carrera 3.8 RS.
simple, but not too bad kit curbside actually. Paint is a special mixed solid blue, and the wing is CF:ed
Messed up the paint a few times and it is still not perfect, and the panel lines are to thick. I think I made actually every misstake possible with this kit.
-Painted too soon after washing body so waterdroplets were still in some corners.
-Clearcoated too soon. Dissolved the base coat.
-Polished through the clear coat.
-The paint for the panel lines flooded out of the shallow fujimi panel lines and on to the paint. I used the same type of paint so cleaning to much with thinner would have dissolved the blue paint aswell..
-Masked for the window frames before the clear had hardened. Messed up paint again (polished out)

Gahhh. I KNOW all these things already since 10 years or so, but still I rush in to things to get finished...

Anyway... The wheels looked rediculously small as usual so I had to do something. I liked the design, but they needen at least another scale inch in diameter to look like the real wheels, so I added some "lips" made out of styrene, put on some BMF and carved out the profile of the tyre so the bigger rim would fit:

With all you have done wrong this is a pretty beautiful an well built kit.
Like the two 911s.

looking pretty damn good man! but what happened to the Viper?!

Keep it up!

Thanks. The yellow viper is asleep in the box again for a while together with the sportquattro.

Oh, I forgot. I also got glue on the windows for the first time in 10 years on the blue 911 :)

Hey, i love your work, beautiful Porsches.

Hey, that's a very nice porsche. Looks very clean to me although you say it actually ain't... I think it looks great!

The wheels do look a lot better now. How did you carve out the profile in the tires?

Super clean build.

nice paint job !

SchuberT:
I used a very sharp modeling knife, and cut along a suitable mold-line on the tyrewall. No so easy though. First you only cut about 1mm into the rubber and concentrate on making a nice edge, then yopu gradually cut deeper and deeper..

It looks very good, they both do.
The wheel addition really makes this car look sweet.
Nice work :)

great looking twing sisters :D

What a nice pair!!:lol: :sunglasse
