Tamiya 1:24 Porsche 911 GT3
Discussion
Flushed with the success of my first model making for about 50 years (see the Christmas Group Build thread for my Revell 1/24 Land Rover Series 3 LWB Station Wagon), I'm emboldened to try another. ![smile](/inc/images/smile.gif)
So, since I used to own this:

I've started this:

Once again I'll try and make it a sort of homage to my old car. Wish me luck.![biggrin](/inc/images/biggrin.gif)

Very black interior done, underbody protection added, wheels stripped of chrome and painted .... silver. ![silly](/inc/images/silly.gif)

Teeny tiny decals were a problem. Many split, and many weren't even attempted to be applied.![hehe](/inc/images/hehe.gif)
More painting of the wheels required.
The model is a little disappointing in that it has rear seats (probably based on a standard Carrera model), and the "carpet" that is supposed to cover them is missing.![irked](/inc/images/irked.gif)
