Taisan Starcard 911 GT2

I have to say this is probably one of my best paintjobs so far. Model is box stock with the addition of an aftermarket harness. Rear fender decals are still a bit wrinkly from the Microset, but they should straighten more as they dry.

comments and suggestions welcome. I'll get better pics as the project moves ahead. Thanks for looking.

Looks great!

sweet looking... i'm working on the same kit too... waiting for the paint to dry...

[fujiwara takumi]

im working on that one right now. the body finish on yours is fantastic, is that rattle can or air-brushed?

i really like the colour you have the tailpipe / heat exchangers, i went with a dark gunmetal on mine.

also i really overdid the paint on the rear deck and spoiler as well as the under lip piece so i get to sand that down tonight :grr: its been a while since ive done a model.

Nice, I built this one not long ago, same #33 version too!! Details in my sig..

Thanks for the comments. I kinda stalled out on this project with not much else being done lately. But I've got a bit more motivation lately to finish this up. Hope to have an update this weekend. Thanks again for digging up this thread and getting me back on track.

Looking good, the GT2 is one of the best Porsche's ever made...

Can't go wrong with the Tamiya GT2 kits. I have nearly fininshed the same base kit but with some of my own decals for another team. Its the second one I have made and will probibly make some more.

Looks like a wonderful paint and decal job
I have this kit but can't do it as the wheels and tyres were missing! Auction purchase and there's not much I can realistically do about it....shame, it's a great car so I will enjoy yours instead

[fujiwara takumi]

are you going to install the under tray?

[alakai]

Geez, I must be suffering from attention defecit these days... I can't seem to focus enough to sit down and finish anything. Nonetheless, I was able to get a bit more decaling done. Body-wise it's mostly done minus the side mirrors and antenna. Here's the latest progress shot for a project that should have ended months ago.


apologies for the low quality image.

fujiwara: I'll probably install the under tray, although as a removeable piece.
Again thanks everyone for the comments, it provides alot of motivation to get things done!

looks good, the chasis is top notch!!

[generationx]

Love this car - have it and the other Tamiya race GT2 in my "to do" pile.

Can't wait to see it finished, excellent work!

Has there been any more progress on this one? This is such a great looking porsche!

Any tips for painting the rims?
