Fujimi Enthusiast Porsche 356

[cruz]

Okay guys, many of you know how crazy these models can be so, here it is. Paint is Tamiya Racing White, there are three coats in all and they were wetsanded and polished carefully. There was no need for a clear coat because it was never used on these cars. I decided to go hubcapless because I love the details of the rims though I did order some nut and stud pins from RB Motion to simulate the lug nuts. I also used button head cap screws from RB Motion for the uptop. I included knobs for the dash from Detail Master and added a few  toggle switches from top studio. Model Car Garage key ring and keys were also added. I also added carpeting for the floor. There are other little personal touches but all in all, it is basically a box stock build. With a lot of patience, these kits really turn out great, hope you guys like it....

Wow wow wow, it is a considerable achievement to just glue such a kit together, to also perform as you have done is amazing.

Outstanding work Marcos.?? I have one of these kits but have been putting off opening it. I will certainly be looking at yours when I get around to it. Any build thread?

Superb model, Marcos - as good as it gets. Highly detailed kit done with even more (aftermarket) details - wow! (Professional photography, too)

Absolutely lovely. Beautifully detailed and the finish is perfectly in scale. I love these kits, and this is something to aspire to when I can work up the courage to build one of mine…

Very well done indeed.

Top build of a Fujimi kit. Classic color combo. Thanks for showing this.

Beautiful looking trim and paint detailing. Like the interior and the wheels.

Absolutely gorgeous 356! Great job Marcos! These Fujimi Porsches are not easy to fully assemble and get right (all four tires touching the ground, an accurate ride height). You nailed it! And the after market knobs and toggle switches in the dash are so cool. I have a Speedster in my stash, you are inspiring me to get it out soon and attack it.

Not much I can add that hasn't been said, so add my opinion that this build is superb. All the little details really make it exceptional.
