Porsche 917K, Fujimi

Hi

today I finished another model, the 917k made by Fujimi, in the Martini Version, LeMans Winner of 71. OOB, except for some belts, the kit can be built in a short time, but when fitting the cowling you'll be happy if you have 3 arms :wink: Unfortunately I damaged the shell decals on the inside of the rear fins, so those are missing. I painted with Zero brilliant white, Prisma Color black and clear from the can and Aquacolor. I dared to sand and polish the clear more than usual and with some wax on top I got a nice finish, I think. Hope you like it.

I like it.

Nice Work! How did you get those stripes on the wheels?

that's something to be proud of. Nice work on the model and the photography as well.

It looks very very good - shows it nicely builds into a cool model OOB.

thanks all

Those are decals from the kit.

Great work, i like it a lot! Still no 917 in my collection.:(

very nice! I like this car

Well done. The model looks cool and your photography gives the impression as if the car is standing on a Daytona curve with a steep banking. I like it.

Nice build! What color did you use to replicate the fiberglass cooling fan?

Fantastic! Can't believe the paint works on those windscreen wipers...

Thanks :)

What color did you use to replicate the fiberglass cooling fan?
It's been a while, but I think it was Revell Aquacolor Sandy Yellow.

Lovely build, although I would wash the panel lines in grey to finish it.
Congratulations!

Cheers,

Very nice indeed...and you cant'beat the 917's look, IMO...thanks for sharing it.

very nice build, my favorite of all the racers.

Very clean modeling. I wish it was mine!
