EIDOLON 1/43 Scale Porsche 911 (997) GT3 RS 2007 Green Finished Product

Makeup

This is the "Porsche 911 (997) GT3 RS 2007," a 1/43 scale handmade model car from EIDOLON. It recreates the 997-generation pure sports grade, the Porsche 911 GT3 RS.

The GT3 RS, which could be described as the "masterpiece," has finally been released. To create the GT3 RS, a prototype was created by combining scanned data from the actual vehicle's monocoque (997 Turbo) with modeling data that accurately traced the GT3 RS's distinctive features, including the front and rear bumpers, side steps, rear fenders, and engine hood.

The radiators visible behind the bumper ducts are made from two layers of etched parts to enhance the visual depth of the core. The headlights are made from white metal reflectors that are plated and then painted, and the lenses, with their fine grooves around the periphery, are made from a newly molded part.

The wing is made from white metal, which is unusual for a 1/43 scale resin model car; a material choice that not only allows for a sharp molded finish, but also has the advantage of being resistant to aging.

The interior, one of the charms of the GT3 RS, is also carefully designed with attention to the shape, size and texture of the bucket seats, which, combined with the roll cage that runs throughout the car, recreates the Spartan atmosphere unique to Rennsport.
