dj,

Looks great ! I actually ordered that model a couple of months ago online, but I never received it and they never charged my credit card so I forgot about it

Can you post information on the hobby shop you picked it up at ? I would like to grab one this weekend...

Thanks !

Nick

djomlas, that looks really good.
I wonder if they have a 987 kit. What's the exact name of the product (brand, model, etc) for an online search? How did you do the painting?

What technique did you use to paint it? Nice detail with the Porsche and Boxster emblem.
