1/24 Peugeot 905B

Post by daveyman »

Here is my Heller 1/24 Peugeot 905B. The car raced in 1992 but this is not a race specific version, a bit of artistic licence was employed here and there. Not a great kit but saved by the Shunko decals, Beautiful quality. It is included in my Multiple WIP on the board.

Good work on what can at best be described as a "challenging kit"!!

I got this one to do, received last week. Didn't remember it was so challenging. I've "built" it when I was 14, and still wonder how I could even have some parts glued together...!!!! Nice build !

I didn't bother trying to have removable body, wanted to concentrate on the overall fit. Lots of dry fitting is the way, check the glazing a lot and definitely invest in the Shunko decal sheet, massive improvement!

I agree, the Shunko decal has the proper fluorescent and metallic decals, they really did their homework on that one!
