Porsche 911 GT3 '98 Profil24

[JesusM]

Hi to all.
This is my first wip in this forum and I will try to show you the process that I'm doing with the Porsche 911 GT3 of an spanish driver called Miguel Angel de Castro:



I started it a few months ago modifying it from the previous year model (07). Now, I'am in the middle of the proyect but you can get all the process from the begining at my blog.

Just to say that the original paints and lacquer belong to Number5 and the decals are made by Decallab.

Anyway, here you have some of the pictures.

The model OOB:



Few body modifications:



The new roll cage:



and the roll cage with the air injectors:



The body with white primer:



The new inside door panles:



The new gearshift done with tin coke (or beer):



The air injectors before paint:


THe new exhausts done from electrical connectors welded and in placed:




Interior with the roll cage and several pieces:



the front window fit process:



the roll cage with the driver pads



The compressed air system:



The home made pedals:



The chassis wih a few wires...



...and more and more wires (fuses box and gearshift included)...



Thanks for looking and yuor comments are allways welcomed!!

Hi to all,

first of all, thanks a lot for your comments. They make me more happy to follow with this project.

j.layos: Of course we will see soon together (at least in Leganés 2013 contest!!)

We continue with the interior, and with this picture series, I bring all wiring. Only missing the seat and rollcage. In the following photos, I show some general shots:











A few views in more detail:







One of the latest additions is a viewer that the car has in the right rear window. I did it with Evergreen, placing a decal blue screen mode, and posted it on on the rollcage, with the usual cables:







And with the backet, after removal previous layer filings, and painted matte black, I put the decals on (they were requested to Decallab) and later, with the airbrush, the new matte varnish Alclad: fantastic, as you can see in the photos, Recaro decals that are not noticed anything. I also put the black belts, and is failing to put the rest of belts, and paste into its site:







If we put the seat in place:



And the roll bar ...



And if we put the body, little is going to see inside ...



So in Leganes 2013 contest, the chassis and body will be separately like this:



Hope you like it, thanks for looking and commenting!

Let's go with wheels. As supplements, we take the Hobby Design wheels for this model, the brake discs of Crazy Modellers and calipers also of Hobby Design. We maintain tires of Profil24 box:



We begin with the disks. Once assembled, we passed sandpaper 1000 in the minidrill, left the disk brightness. And for the attachment to the rim, we cut Evergreen disks which will stick in the center of the outer part of the disc:



We place the discs and calipers on some sticks and we mask the disk for painting the interior ...



... with Tamiya acrylic Titanium Gold:



Once dry, we glue the clamps on the discs and give a thin wash of very diluted black matt on calipers and disks, and put the decal on the caliper:





Come with tires, which are very fragile first, but excellent creation. The first thing I do is give a cyano layer on the outside of the rear wheels, to ensure the fine edge they have, and remove the inside of the rim (myself will create the setting, as the brake discs can not fit through bringing the tube):



we review all internal edges with mini limes, and give white primer, this time from Vallejo. I found it very good:



Next step: Alclad black primer ....



... To then painted with Alclad Chrome. Ii is fantastic for me! Also, if I put the finger, then I can remove the mark with a stick, and leaves brighten up!





We finished the whole tyres sanding them, putting valves and Porsche decals in the center and "Dunlop" on the tire (both from Crazy Modeler). I must say, for this, I used the liquid Tameo decals, the extra strong, literally sticking the decal to the tire and leaves as if the rubber itself: perfect!. It was recommended by Spotmodel. Nuts also painted blue and metallic red of Hobby Color.



Now we just need to spend a matte black soft coat highly diluted and ready to ride! And the next ... body!
Thanks for watching and commenting!
