Jägermeister Porsche 934 Turbo RSR, Tamiya 1:24 Completed

A quick build of tamiyas Jägermeister Porsche 934 Turbo RSR in 1:24 scale.

Built out of the box and painted with Zero Paints Jägermeister Orange, 2K clear and metallic colors from AK and Alclad. Superb fit as always with tamiya but a bit simplified. The downside to the low part count is that a lot needs masking, like black trim and the engine that's molded to the floor.

The only thing that's been added and is not in the kit are seat-belts and fasteners, painted Good Year on the tire walls with a template. A stunning looking livery so will for sure build another Jägermeister livery racing car.
