Porsche GT3R Hybrid 24h 2011

[mwhh]

I start a new WIP.
Base is the 1/24 Fujimi Porsche 997 GT3R kit.
The new Transkit from Scaleproduction contains all modifications for the 2011 GT3R Hybrid. New hoods, bumper, BBS chrome wheels, PE parts, wing bracket, dashboard and steering wheel are included. These parts are very good quality.


First of all you need cut off the hood and bumper. I opened all vents at the body.



After first layer of primer the body looks nice. Some sanding and its ready for painting white.
