1/8 DeAgostini Porsche 911 conversion complete build.

Post by WardsModelBuilder »

My next commision build is going to be a 1/8 DeAgostini Porsche 911 conversion to a RSR wide wheel arches by m-tec, painted in zero paints Gulf Orange. There will be a couple of other modifications during the build, such as cutting out the number plate in the front bumper but I will come to those later in the build. This is going to be a complete build not just paint work as in my Mustang thread.

I have already stripped the original paint off the body work, a little clean up still to be done. Next step is the add the resin wheel arches and then prime everything.

Thanks

A little progress on the 1/8 DeAgostini Porsche 911 conversion.

I have now epoxy glued the resin wheel arches onto the metal body.

and started the process of blending them into the body shape which filler and sanding.

Hello everyone, didn't have the time to update this thread during the build process, my apologies for that.

But I will show you some photos of the completed model.

WOW...that is a nice project !! ever thought about doing a raceversiong...must look amazing.
Really tempting project, but not to sure about spending 1.000€ for a modelkit :)

Only thing that bothers me a bit is that I think/feel the form of the wheelarches looks wrong !?!....looks like one of those badly made aftermarket kits available for 1/1 cars.
Other than that it's amazing.

Someone has a spare 1/8 Porsche for sale at a good price ?? :)
