Fujimi Enthusiast Porsche 356 Speedster...







Okay guys, many of you know how crazy these models can be so, here it is. Paint is Tamiya Racing White, there are three coats in all and they were wetsanded and polished carefully. There was no need for a clear coat because it was never used on these cars. I decided to go hubcapless because I love the details of the rims though I did order some nut and stud pins from RB Motion to simulate the lug nuts. I also used button head cap screws from RB Motion for the uptop. I included knobs for the dash from Detail Master and added a few toggle switches from top studio. Model Car Garage key ring and keys were also added. I also added carpeting for the floor. There are other little personal touches but all in all, it is basically a box stock build. With a lot of patience, these kits really turn out great, hope you guys like it....

You're a true master of your craft. It would be nice to see a whole guide to painting the model.

Dude! Fantastic work on a not-so-easy to build kit!
Looks super, love the color scheme. Congrats on it.
