crispy Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 The car is painted Tamiya Pure White. The Wheels are Aoshima Amistad Rotino's 19" with the centers stripped and painted Tamiya Semi-Gloss black. The interior was painted Tamiya Light Sand and flocked with a similar color. The Aoshima wheels needed some work on the back side to fit the Porsche, but that's what the Dremel was for, just took some skinny-ing of the wheel back to fit in the hole. Kit is Fujimi. The thing falls together exactly like a Tamiya kit. More pictures at MY FOTKI of course!
Marc @ MPC Motorsports Posted May 29, 2007 Posted May 29, 2007 Nice and no apparent bleed of the red plastic. What primer did you use?
crispy Posted May 29, 2007 Author Posted May 29, 2007 Thanks Marc! I went with the Plasti-Kote T-237 for primary primer to fix/find any flaws, then topped with two coats of Tamiya primer.
ismaelg Posted May 29, 2007 Posted May 29, 2007 I can't believe you finished yours before I finished mine! Well, I do believe it Nice way to get back. It looks very good in white. Mine is done. I need to take pics and post them... Thanks,
crispy Posted May 29, 2007 Author Posted May 29, 2007 Thanks Ismael, some of your tips probably helped me get through faster. Plus I think all day Saturday I had your progress thread opened to catch some views. I needed this to get back into building again. I've got another kit off the shelf and ready to start on tomorrow. I will add that I was able to work on this Porsche from Friday through today ALL DAY each day. Thanks to a dehydrator and CA accelerator, things move along much quicker. Although not as detailed as yours Ismael, I like how it came out. I'm very happy with it. Chris
