Global Scale Modeller

Morning All.

I've been experiencing some mojo loss of late and haven't built in a while. I'm hoping this kit might snap me out of it.

Oh super cool
This is the new Tamiya kit everyone is buzzing about
Really looking forward to your build

Looking forward to seeing you build this one.

Cheers gents. Having to hold off starting the build until tomorrow as I'm entering a GB on another forum with it.

In the meantime I've ordered some Porsche colours from Paul @ ProScale.

Nice car.

Made a start on this, just the chassis and rear brakes/suspension and exhaust.

Off to a good start

Morning all.

Got a little bit more done on this, front end running gear is now complete.

Coming along nicely.

Keith.

​Afternoon all.

I got the cabin completed over the weekend. Just noticed when posting that there are some water marks on the seats that I need to remove.​

Interior too me looks fantastic. The colours are right on what I'd expect from a real car.

Cheers Digger.

The roll cage was supposed to be black, I went a bit off piste.

Excellent job!!! And good call on the colour for the roll cage.

The dash and its details are excellent!

very nice work

Cheers guys. I've just noticed a couple of fingerprints that will need to be removed before the body goes on.

What he said

Amazing interior indeed !

The interior is $$ !! 3rd (or 4th) that, for sure... but even the suspension / brake assemblies look excellent!! Are those the stock discs?? Crazy nice details

Cheers gents.

Yep, all stock parts, just gave the disks a black wash to simulate the holes, I prefer this to trying to drill them all out, it never looks right imo.

Morning all,

Polished up the body yesterday. This had been painted, decalled and glossed over the last couple of weeks, leaving several days each for the paint and gloss coats to fully cure. I'm quite happy with the finish, managed to get quite a glossy look.





And I also fitted some of the other body accoutrements, bumpers, engine cover, louvres, etc.



And to finish off I got the wheels painted and the centre caps and tyres added.



Other than the glass all the other parts are now painted so I can move on to final assembly.

Nice paint.

Cheers Digger.

Very nice, the paint finish looks very convincing, not too glossy just right.
Can I ask what colour you used, I can't decide if it is grey or pearl white?

Regards
Keith

This car is gonna be awesome

Cheers gents.

Keith, the body is Porsche Ice Grey, the wheels Porsche Pyro Red, both from Proscale.

​Pushed on with adding the glass, wing, mirrors and plethora of grilles and intakes yesterday and am almost at the finish line. Just the aero to go on, then it's done.

I decided to fit the body to the chassis before adding the last parts, some of them are very small with tiny gluing surfaces, and I could foresee me knocking them off trying to get the body on if fitted later.​

Sweet car.

Very nice work so far, color selections are poerfect!

Cheers Gents.

Drums, I went on the Porsche website and used the configure function to build my own car (if only). This let me play around with the various colour options to see what I liked.
