Tamiya GTR in blue
Hey guys. This is the first model I did after discovering automotive forums, my girlfriend bought this for my birthday, after she organized a ride in a 2011 GTR, this car is a demon
 A lot of things went wrong while building this model, snapped the bumper, masking tape left marks on the paint and had to strip the bonnet cause I burned through the paint while polishing. Anyway, learnt a lot and now I’m hooked on modelling. So here it is, in TS 51 Racing blue, criticisms welcome         My girl and I infront of the 2011 GTR:  Thanx

Re: Tamiya GTR in blue
The only criticism I'd put forward is your photos are a bit dark. The car looks great. nice build.

Re: Tamiya GTR in blue
Model looks great, and if your gf both gave you the kit and set you up with a drive, I'd says she's a keeper!
