Back from long hiatus: Fujimi 1/24 Skyline 350GT
It has been certainly over a year since I have completed a model. Heck, I think it has been close to two years since I have worked on a model! I had 2 free days this week, and decided that it would be total waste of a year if I have not built at least one model...so I picked up an easy Fujimi curbside and build it just to get into the swing of things...Took me total of 16 hours to build - pretty good (even though too very simplified) kit.
Nevermind that it has 4x4 stance, I was too lazy to tinker with that, plus I really wanted just to FINISH something, totally box stock. I did add tire valves, p/e rear emblem, and cut out front inlets and replaced molded mesh with real thing though.

For a 16 hour build this is a flawless job! How I wish I could build something in 16 days anymore. Although the suspension is stock I still think its pretty close to the factory car, probably less than a 1mm drop at the back.

Re: Back from long hiatus: Fujimi 1/24 Skyline 350GT
Look who's back! Well it's not totally fair to say "back" since you haven't left for that long... And with a nissan! Wow! Nothing much to comment really, standard Alex territory. But there're two things that did shocked me which were, well first, a nissan... and 16 hours to get this? You'd at least rust a little bit after a long break... Welcome back my friend! Say hello to Michael~~~~

Welcome back, it must feel good to complete something after such a long time!
Why have you "stopped" if you dont mind me asking?
