Nissan Skyline R34 WIP
This is what I have done so far on my Tamiya Skyline R34 kit:
-custom hood (from Revell Super Stallion Mustang kit)
-scratch built body kit
I'll update as soon as I get some progress done (I'm working on quite a few projects at the moment).

Re: Nissan Skyline R34 WIP
I recognize that hood too! That's the Mustang hood I gave you. It actually fits the R34.

Re: Nissan Skyline R34 WIP
Are you just gonna leave the rear like that or do you intend to put on a diffuser for extra brownie points?

I'll have to see, I haven't really mocked it up yet, so I'll have to see when the chassis is on there whether or not I'll put one on.

Re: Nissan Skyline R34 WIP
Ok now I'm trying to figure out what colour I want to do the R34. I was thinking of a dark, very metallic blue. Or should I do it a red, green, charcoal, etc.... ????? What do you guys think?

Re: Nissan Skyline R34 WIP
I'm thinking a nice dark metallic or candy red, or a pearl light blue or the gun metal/charcoal option.
