Nice touch on the wheels.
Did you mask that off? Air brush or rattle?

And compliments on the finish nice outdoor reflection on the hood.

[GTmike400]

Wow...you're going to finish a Porsche before me. Never saw that coming.

Looks great Dennis. Cant wait to see more. I love the color of the body and wheel color. The go together really well.

[Ferrarifreak]

Lookin SWEET there Dennis!!!!! The color suits it very well.

[Dennis]

Don't get mad, we don't have a picture limit do we??? I am just too damn proud of my work so far on this car!! Being I don't normally build this type of model! I still need to polish, slight peel in the roof!! Now I know I will start to rush things and screw it up! I already see that I need to take the steering wheel off and paint the part where it connects to the column black and the center black! Still need to add speaker decals to the dash, maybe??? Here are a few pics........

The paint looks just amazing, as does the rest of the car. We can't say much about your departure from your typical fare if you do it oh so well.

[Eric Cole]

Wow....... Dennis, you've become a machine!!

The GT3 is looking awesome... great color for it.

[Matt Wadlinger]

The red seats and brake calipers look sweet with that body color.

It doesn't look like you have much polishing to do. The paint looks nice and smooth already. These low humidity days are great for painting.

[slammd454SS]

awesome color....awesome wheel choice....what the heck did you hit with your head anyways?

[freakmech]

Nice work so far! Looking forward to seeing the finished product. You can never go wrong with Gunmetal on modern sport cars. Keep at it!
