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 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.

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

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

Those are decals from the kit.

Re: Porsche 917K, Fujimi

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?

It's been a while, but I think it was Revell Aquacolor Sandy Yellow.

Re: Porsche 917K, Fujimi

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

Cheers,
Lee.
