Tamiya 88 Porsche Turbo - Martini

Hey Guys

This was just for fun, nice Tamiya kit, but way too simplified! Wheels dont steer, limited interior detail etc. But was a quick & easy build. (after the brake fluid bath anyway...)
Colour is Zero Paints Aston Martin Morning Frost Pearl white, came as a 30ml ground coat of solid white + a 30ml milky white pearl layer. Love the colour came out really nice! Swapped the wheels for C1 Rotiform 18" wheels & tires, great great wheels to use!!!
Designed up some custom decals just for fun

Cheers for looking
Ash

















Did a Martini pattern on the seats but forgot to get a good photo before I closed her up...

Good looking model. The Martini stripes just suit the 911 like no other. Those seats look fantastic - how did you achieve that finish?

Cheers,

Anthony

Those wheels fit a lot better than I would have expected! Great look, the Martini livery and the wheels and seats and everything, just perfect. Great model!

Looks nice with Martini!

What I donīt like are the edges of the black colours in some areas.
