This is the last 1/32 scale kit I’m building for a while. They are fun to build but hard on the old eyes. ;)
Was happy with the paint (thanks for the advice on getting a glossy finish.I will eventually get the look I want.) until I tried adding the chrome trim, then my fat fingers got smudges all over. Not very good at masking either. Seems I can’t get the tape to stick well enough to stop some paint from running under. And advice welcomed. Thanks for looking. Stay safe and enjoy!

Undercarriage needs the paint to be smoother. No idea where the dots are coming from as they are not dust particles.

Never seen this kit before, you made it look good. 

Only thing that bothers me is they made the tires too tall for this kind of car.

Thanks.

The ARII kits are pretty easily found in Japan. 
As for the tires, too tall and too skinny. They are the same tires on all the ARII 1/32 kits.

Be sure to share more builds of kits from the "rising sun", especially with the boxes.

I think all of the 1/32 scale kits I’ve posted (4) have the box In the background. I’ll keep doing that in the future as well.

 Nice job on this Porsche, although Arii has made a mistake, the 911S didn't come out until 1967.

Thanks.

That must have been why I had a hard time finding reference photos for a ‘65. :)
