[primera man]

Heres some pics so far of the latest project....its coming along well. Have got the roll cage to build and fit tomorrow so hopefully get a pic later on when done.
Body will be painted in the next few days.
So far the whole car has been assembled with Kristal Klear only so that a lot of the painted parts doesn't run there colours into each other.
Hope you all enjoy so far.


Love these wheels !!!

I'm really happy how the engine turned out after a very light wash wih clear orange to give it a hot/heated look in places.

This is the body afer being given 2 coats of primmer

[primera man]

The same colour as the chassis...light blue

I'm doing the same model right now. Mine's going to be red with the wheels done black/silver lip. I've also made the exhaust right off the turbo's have a heat flamed effect, it looks cool, but not entirely sure about realism. Like how you did the engine though, looks real good

Hi, very nice work.
If I would be you, I wouldn't use the decals harness.
They are too irrealistic !
Except that, you Porche look fantastic !!
Bye,

[Forhod]

So far looks good...
I can't keep my eyes off the wheels!~ So nice!


But somehow, I feel that light blue is not gonna go with it.
What do you think?

Cant believe u used those nasty seat belt decasl !!!!!

Anyway no need to mention how good it looks, i'll just wait till its done and save wear on my typing fingers

Have u seen this? - Mad! http://www.ai.wakwak.com/~kake-40/porsche.htm

Light Blue?!?
What's wrong with you guys?
Ferraris are red, Porsches are white or yellow, Jaguars are green ...
Just kidding
Looking great so far Primera. Great engine, and those "BBS like" wheels are one of my favourites.
Hope to see soon how the body will turn out.

gadzooks! what a sweet lookin kit! great job so far. that kit has been lookin at me for far too long and im off to get one very soon. do the rims come gold/silver or do you have to mask it yourself?

[Wishmaster]

Looks great so far, but I need to know 1 thing. Is your rear spoiler fitting wel?? Because at my 911 GT2 Taisan Starcard it didn't quiet fit. The thing were the spoiler is fitted on doens't really connect with the rest of the body also.. so is it just my model, or all the 911 GT2 from tamiya scarred for life...?

[primera man]

FOTW....Thats a pretty mean looking kit...bit overkill for me though.

barnabei...the wheels come as silver and you have to paint the gold.

wishmaster....the spoiler has a small gap at the bottom of the widow which is the same as the other 2 i have done so far...so i guess they are meant to have it there for some reason

Can anybody tell me were to get some harness belts from??...i used to get them here in NZ but they just got to dear to buy and just wasn't worth it.

Thanks for the comments so far.

is it a hard masking job? might go get that kit tomorrow and was just wondering if there were any problems to fix before i started it ie: gaps etc. thanks.

I didn't use any masking at all. They have been hand painted with 3 coats of thin-down HUMBROL Gold...they are really quite easy to paint
I used the Humbrol as its a little bit darker then the Tamiya gold and seems to cover alot better

Ya darn tootin there fella! Good work though!

Harnesses...I can send you these if u like? I brought a couple and dont think i will actually be needing this for a while. I can always get more, there is no webbing included with it though!


Let me know?...anything to make u stop using those nasty decals!!!:finger:

[daggerlee]

For the belts themselves...you could use masking tape, folded over on itself!
