Tamiya's Porsche Carrera

[bluemoose]

Here's one I just finished. I painted it with Tamiya gloss aluminum (TS-17) and cleared it with Tamiya TS-13, then polished with Tamiya fine finish polish.

That is beautiful. The work is simply flawless and it DOES look real. Nice work, Moose.

Thanks! no problems whatsoever with the kit. Actually, it goes together as good as or better than anything I've ever built. There's a lot of detail, so it's a fairly slow build.

That is truly stunning!! Beautiful build!

[Zoom Zoom]

Very nice work, as usual

Couldn't have said it better!

A beautiful build of a cool exotic Porsche. An unusual choice of color with the aluminum, but it gives it a neat 'toned down' kind of silver look. Sanitary clean!

Nice work Moose. My favorite Porsche. I've got a couple of these in que.

Great build, color and photography.

I'm gonna have to go with the majority here, and say real. Outstanding craftsmanship!

[Jon Cole]

Thanks for posting that Tom. I miss your builds from the other board

[beefheart22]

You can't pass off a 1:1 as a model! Seriously though, that is FANTASTIC!

[John Teresi]

Man.....talk about show room build.....Very very nice.

[Stang67]

Excellent Job!! What did you do the wheels with? Thanks.

[vizio93]

Wow that Porsche looks too good !!!

[bluemoose]

Excellent Job!! What did you do the wheels with? Thanks.

Thanks! that's the way the wheels come with the kit, kind of a frosted chrome look. The kit instructions call for the lock nuts to be painted clear blue on the right side and clear red on the left side.

Thanks.I'm just drulling all over the screen! It's one of my grails. I like the mellow look on the alum. I found out if you use semi-clear and buff the hi shine it will look like that.

Cheers
