Mauricio Meyer Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 Hi again! This is another 2012 built i would like to share. Tamiya 1/24 finished in Camel Yellow. Hope you enjoy!
mrm Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 Very nice build, but the license plates don't jive. You have a D sticker, which is the old way (same vintage as the car) to show where in Europe you are and license plates from Bologna, Italy. The build tho is just remarkable.
Dragline Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 What a great build! I have one in red about 2/3rds the way done. Hope it comes out as nice. Bob
simonr Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 Excellent build...nice 'n clean! Simón P. Rivera Torres
sjordan2 Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 Superb - great paint and excellent engine bay finishes.

Thank you all for your coments! yes, the model was intended to have the German license plate but I accidentally broke the decal and had to use the italy plate decal (from a Revell R8 kit). By the time i broke the decal i already had de "D" decal sticked in the model
Custom Mike Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 Beautiful build, and one of the nicest colors I've ever seen on this kit! I did one of these a few years back, did you have problems with getting the body over the chassis at the back end too? Thing about drove me nuts with all the mold lines and fit issues!
robertw Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 You can park that in my driveway any day.......what you mean it's not real!! Beautiful work!
Dominik Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 Best Porsche ever. You did a great job on it!
Volvoman Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 Beautiful car, beautiful colour, beautiful build!!

Hi Mike, Yes, the kit has a bit of a problem at the back, it fits tight, it's tricky but at the end it fits. Also is a bit hard to get a good work on the wing, puttying is key to get it right. Thanks for the recent coments, i'm glad you like it, it's a great color for this car! Edited November 21, 2012 by Mauricio Meyer
