I finally finished a model after a 3 month break.
This is the Fujimi 928GT. The kit is not the greatest, but it turns out a decent result with some patience. All of the panel lines were very shallow, and I had to rescribe them all. The front and rear bumper fit was pretty poor as well. The ride height was off, and I had to lower it as much as possible. I will have to scratch some sideview mirror inserts and BMF them as none came in the kit.
I painted this with Cobra Colors Porshe Meridian Metallic. Its a silvery metallic with a rose tint. It's adds a classy look to this sports car. The interior is painted tan and black.
Here's some pics:

Solid work again! :bigthumb:
The 928 always was my favourite Porsche. Much nicer than the 911.

Wow, that's a really nice build. Your paint work is amazing as always, and even the panel lines look good to me. Fantastic work.

Looks good Matt. What is the deal with the roof, looks like some panel lines or a sunroof or something?

There is a sunroof on this car. On most pics I have of this car the sunroof is hard to see unless it is open. The panel line isn't as pronounced as the others, so I decided not to use my panel line pen on it.

Thanks guys.

Fantastic color choice for that classic's natty: really I start to be envious for those cobra stuff.
Let me to ask something about the rims: had you strip that and coated with alclad? Looks fabulous.

The wheels are just like they came from Fujimi. They were a satin chrome and looked pretty good. I painted the lug nuts black, and put a wash of Tamiya smoke in the porsche crest in the center.

Great job Matt, the color choice is perfect for that body style. Classy and still sporty too.
