DJZ 1/12 SCALE TAMIYA 934 RSR PORSCHE

I love porsches. Good looking build so far. I hope I pay enough attention to detail when I do my F1 cars. :)

Thank you for the advice. I found some Grabber Blue Testors that I think I might use.

Nice project, and WOW, seat mounts?!?  

The color choice looks almost spot-on, but issues I've found with the Krylon plastic paint are:

1. the stuff really sticks to plastic (could be an advantage unless there's a problem, like below, and you need to remove it).  The only way I've found to strip it is with sandpaper.

2. it's very hard to get a nice smooth finish, let alone glossy.

And only the Porsche specific gauge fell off into never never land....

Tried some gunmetal blue on the pedals.

E brake and shifter..

Molding seems not to bad...

I have this, not what I want to use...

I want to use this, but have not seen it yet, not sure if it's the color I'm looking for.

Love it!!!

Jumping a bit ahead - which orange are you planning on using?

Still need to clean it up...

Painted everything a semi gloss white.

See the huge difference??

The hood is un painted...

Working on the front clip fuel system.

Some brake work...

Great job so far. While working on my 1/8 '32 Ford, I've found out that as you want to add detail you have to be more precise in your work. In 1/24 you just have to be "close". In the larger scales, it really has to look like it. Slow but sure does the job. Keep up the good work.

Thank you. By the time I finished my 1/8 Bucket I wanted to stick a M80 in it...

I am amazed I can post picts, I'll see if I can make them better.

It seems to be more the mood of the cel phone...

Wow, 70's issue, how was the fitment over time?

Interested to see this progress.

at least tamiya add more detail to their bigger kits, unlike those mongram 1/12 kits.
