Air-cooled GB: Porsche 959

This is not really a WIP as it's almost done. But what the hey right :D

It's Tamiya 1/24 kit with TS 26 Pure white polished and waxed.

I never really liked the original 959 wheels, so I took the liberty and replaced it. The new wheels are staggered from R32 Skyline JGTC. The rear wheels are added with some leftover sleeves, the tires are stock.

The wheels received wash treatment to bring out the bolts and tone down the chrome a bit. I am still considering the idea of painting the centerpiece silver of gunmetal.

I had to sand down the brake hubs to ensure that the wheels are not sticking out of the fenders.

The engine bay is lightly detailed with hoses, wires, and weathered. I will post pics of the engine by itself later.

Thank you for looking, C&Cs are greatly appreciated:D

Looking very nice, Tham :thumbsup:

Looks great, those wheels suit it very nicely.

Cool, one of my very favorites. Off to a good start, looking forward to seeing more of the engine. :grinyes:

Looks great. The 959 always looked great in white.
Like the wheels. The wash looks perfect.
If I should change anything I would paint the center piece of the rims dark bronze, almost gunmetal.
But it still looks great as it is.
