Hi guys,
thought i would share some finished shots of my first completed model for a while.
it is finished out of the box, in zero paints ocean blue metallic paint (porsche) i also carpeted the interior with the supplied carpet. the window masking was accomplished with some 0.6mm masking tape.






enjoy the pictures

Great job Jason!
The only thing I can see that could look better is to dip the headlights & tail lights in Future floor polish and let dry before installing them on your car. This is a trick used by aircraft modelers to clear up canopies. The Future fills tiny imperfections and makes the clear plastic look a lot more transparent.
Some weathering of the tail pipes and possibly a wash & dust underneath is a realistic touch as well, to each his own as auto modelers like the factory freshlook.
Thanks for posting the pictures!

yeah i go for the factory fresh show room look, as per the future i would love to use it, but here in australia, it is damn near impossible to find, i have seen it once and that was a few years ago, kicking myself for not getin some then.

Excellent job Jason! Clean and tidy. I have a question though, is that flocking on the floor or something else? Thanks. [H]
HI,
no it isn’t flocking, it is the self adhesive mat that tamiya supply in the kit, is is like flocking, but in a mat form that you cut to size (with templates supplied in the instructions)
hope that helps a little
Jason
