Nice color. I cannot wait to see this finished
I might use Tamiya on my R33

Is Tamiya spray paint better than Testors?
Did you clear coat or polish?

Thx

Great work, but I thought tamiya paint didn't need clear coat and yours looks slightly dull. No offense to you, it's abviously the paint, maybe I got my wires crossed.

Definatly go with Tamiya, Testor's seems to go on too thick :(.
I have yet to clearcoat or polish :p, I'll clearcoat next week and polish sometime after that.

Here are some more pics :D, about half and hour ago I almost f***ed up this model by spilling a bunch of water on the decal sheet :banghead: and I had to put them all on as fast as I could :mad:. In the end I lost only one black Nismo decal which I needed for one of the wheels!! argh!!
