Eric C Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Here's a quick OOB build of one of Tamiya's Porsche 962's. It's not one of my favorite models because of the molded in windows and headlight covers but overall I'm pretty happy with the look. Painted with Tamiya spray Chrome Yellow and polished. Wheels are painted with Tamiya's spray Silver Leaf. My panel lines are a little darker than I'd like against the yellow paint. And I realize after taking all the pics that I haven't painted the exhaust yet.... :oops: More pics here: http://s5.photobucket.com/albums/y197/just...rs/FromA%20962/
DarylH Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Sweet build with a great paint job! I love those IMSA/LeMans Porsches...
MrObsessive Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Stunning paint job! That's one of those kind of bodies that can be difficult to paint so you've definitely done that one justice!
Zoom Zoom Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Eric, glad you joined the fray here and the new model is awesome 8) I hope to see it next weekend at the park :wink: You need to post pictures of your 935...
Eric C Posted August 19, 2006 Author Posted August 19, 2006 Thanks everybody, Bob, I still have just a few small things I want to do before I consider the 935 done, then I'll post some completed pics. For now here's a link to the in-progress pics: http://s5.photobucket.com/albums/y197/just...0Turbo/?start=0
BIGTRUCK Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 The build and the paint are A-1 , fantastic work.......
ismaelg Posted August 20, 2006 Posted August 20, 2006 That is really sweet. Very nice build! I've always liked those LeMans/IMSA prototypes. Thanks,
jbwelda Posted August 21, 2006 Posted August 21, 2006 personally i like dark panel lines on light colored cars. they look right to my eyes and i go out of the way to analyze the look of light color cars that i see for just that feature. all that business with doing panel lines in a darker shade of the body color seems like a waste of time to me because when i see a car in the light i see black in the panel lines.
