ATHU Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Horrid kit..... Paint is Ametrin Metallic, a BMW color from Gravity. Wheels are BBS LM from Aoshima. Thanks for checking it out! 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMT68 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 That's as gorgeous a paint job as I've ever seen in the last four years since I've gotten back into the hobby. Every time I think I've seen your best you manage to take your work to another level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beeRS Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 That is a beautiful build. It’s a shame to hear the kit is horrible (you wouldn’t know from the end result). I have this in my stash and was really looking forward to putting it together. Those wheels look stunning. What Aoshima kit are they from?

slusher Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Gorgeous Porsche! Love the color and everything about it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drodg Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Beautiful job. I built the regular 993 to replicate my 96 993 C4 and you are right it is a horrible kit. You did a great job on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamsuperdan Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 I like your build! I found the kit was definitely subpar compared to Tamiya, but it wasn't horrible. Suspension and wheels need replacing, but otherwise I liked the one I did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happy grumpy Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 Wow Anders, that paint job is awesome and so's the color. Aoshima rebox a lot of kits from different manufacturers so it's kind of hit and miss but you did turned it in a beautiful looking car.

70 Sting Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 You certainly made a silk purse out of a sow’s ear. 👍👌 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89AKurt Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 I never bothered getting one of those kits, so I don't know how horrid they are. But it does have an engine, which some of the Tamiya and Fujimi kits do not have. You did a nice job, more than it deserved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Chernosky Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 Anders, that may be a horrid kit (I know as I have done a few early Italeri) but it has a "knock yer socks off" paint job on it. Really nice job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy124 Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Hi Anders, great craftmanship as usual. The rims are are touch too big for my personal taste, they appear to be 21" or 22" to me. But as I said, personal taste. No doubt about this being a well-built and -painted model! Does "horrid" refer to the build-up in general? I can't see too many downsides, apart from the headlights looking not so much spot-on and the Porsche badge being a bit too big? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
