Here she is so far. Tamiya skyline. This has been a pleasure to build. It lends itself very nicely to 'easy-build' status.

Custom skirts taken from the Azec Accord Wagon (Aoshima) and the rear fender things are from a z-tune kit. Wing is from Fujimi tuner parts set. CF is SMS.
Not sure what rims I want to use. I'll post some pics with possibles soon.

Dr. Eddie, it's looking a beauty! I'm not really fond of these so-called "tuner cars", but I must confess that Skylines have always been my secret love :)
I think you've done a lovely job with it so far. The color suits it very well and those side skirts are also very clean-looking. Great work, well done!

Cheers,
Pedro.

Nice mods on your Skyline: i didn't know right away that the side skirts weren't original--they fit well. I love the blue!

great looking model man! i just have one issue.. you should probably take the apex'i decals off the side, because they are a competing company with HKS, but thats just my 2 cents..

Looks phenominal!!!!

One question, where did you get the decals?
Were they out of another kit? Or did you make them yourself?

Eddie your work is always top notch. to be honest... i liked the HKS on the side but not the wing. but its great all the same. keep knocking me out with your wonderful builds!

oh, did you tint the headlights?

:eek: I love it ! Those Fabolous Profounds look soo nice. I had to get rid of my set since i didn't know what to use them on:lol: Just wouldn't look right on an Integra:lol:

Keep up the great stuff Eddie !

I agree with freakmech, the decals are great (white on blue, it just cant go wrong). But, and i know it of no use to you this late, maybe the model would look better if the wing would extend a bit further behind the rear of the model, horizontally. Then again, just my :2cents:
