That's hot!! Do you have a a link to a WIP?

Man that is so cool!!
What kit is that?

Looking great,really nice job!! Love the Martini colour scheme.

Beautiful :thumbsup:

Very cleanly done. A great build of super car.

Superb!

That is a nice build! The spokes are just added detail too!

Very nice work.

Beautiful model!

Fantastic!!!

Looking at the etched parts on the front hood the wiper looks huge

We demand a WIP! Very nice build and one of my favourite colour schemes.

Is it the Fujimi kit? I've got a few critisms of the kit itself after looking it over thoroughly whilst researching for my 1/8th version and I'm wondering if anyone else agrees with me on this, but I think the doors tops are about 2-3mm too low. This is especially noticable on the Gulf version for some reason but doesn't notice on this build. I'm also sure that the base of the windscreen should be horizontal instead of sloping forward as on the kit.

Getting ready to be flamed!:evillol:

Beautiful build! I especially liked the wheels. +1 on WIP request :P

Thanks to all. I agree the plastic wiper is alittle large but I had trouble getting the etched one to fold prperly and lost part of it. Here is a link to the work in progress.

That's funny, you even posted in the WIP.

Great job, I have this exact one to build. Can't go wrong with a 917.

lol, exactly what happened to me on an earlier model

Beautiful and inspiring to do the Martini livery on a 917K.

Stunning and inspiring to build one in my show case :D

LOL! I know. Was having a senior moment and didn't realise it was the same build! :screwy:

This model would look good in my display case.

Hi,

really a great looking model.

I want to build him in this version still, then however in such a way:

I also had the problem. I have taken then the wiper arm of the Fujimi-Kit and the wiper sheets of Studio27.
