Tamiya Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 **With lowered rear**

Waiting for the third and final coat of primer to cure so i can start with the TS-50, mica blue, body color.

Did you take any more pictures of the F50? I must have missed it :confused: :confused:

not yet, i'll do that either tomorrow or sunday.

here is the body with about 4 coats of Mica Blue.

it's turning quite fine!!!!!

hope to see more progress pics of it (love that blue)


Cheers

lookin good so far, i've started mine mica red but it won't be done for a while...maybe i should have done it mica blue:D

NICE :) :) ...You look to have got a nice gloss to the paint.
Its been awhile now since someone done a R34....SUCH A GREAT KIT:cool:

It now has 5 coats of paint and maybe more to come. I want it to seem like you could get lost looking into the paint.

Ok, after months of procrastination i am finally going to dust my paints off and get started on the biatch! I have no clue where i am so that should be fun. I also have to get some pics of my F50 taken before it gets too bright outside.

Good to see you back on the forum and building again :cool:

I am with Warren on this one, the R34 is my all time favourite kit! Even now each time I look in the cabinet it's the car that catches my attention first!
Keep up the work, you'll love it too!

That looks great! did u heat up your can of spray paint to get it on that glossy?

The TS 50 mica blue really suits the R34. Should look fine when all finished. The tamiya paints seem to be the better cans to buy.
Have just bought the Fujimi R34 GT Turbo and can't wait to do it after seeing this one.

Here it is after todays work, it wasn't hard to figure out where i left off because i didn't even start anything.

I hereby vow that if I build an R34 GT-R, it will not be Bayside Blue! :cool:

:hehehe:

no like the brake color is teh same and he didn't paint the wheels~
and we r liek @ teh same stage~

That is really scary, how more then 1 person can get their Skyline exactly the same as someonelses. I think that the R34 looks sick in Black or Red. I think I may get one just to paint it Black...They look so sweet.

Nice RIMS. hehe Nice job on ur car there.

Top job to ya Snowie :D

snowboarder.........

what else can i say.......NICE!!!!..........

i used mica blue for my evo 6 too, but somehow i finish the whole on the 3rd coat....hehehehe...........nice color man....nice color.....ohyeah, next time i have a skyline, i will try and avoid mica blue.......hahahahah;-)

Good to see you finished it...looks great

Did you leave the rims unpainted? I don't know which I prefer, the gun metal, dull rims or the shiny ones as above :)

Nice but...
I think the butt is sitting a little high compared to the front?

how come the left rear of the car is so high? and I thought u lowered it~ but it looks normal to me.. maybe the camera problem~!?:confused:

:frog: Damn that car look nice but whats up wit he back:frog:

I never said i lowered it at all. The front might look lower only because the wheel is turned, but i'll go and play around with it to see if i can get the butt down, although i have no clue how to do it.

:eek:whoa how come this pic of ur's the butt isn't sticking up?
http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/408012R34001.jpg

wat u do to it~!? mine is stock and the butt doesn't stick liek that~ maybe u haven't clip it right~

YES! YES! Great work!!! :cool: :cool:

Noz: Yes the rims are unpainted.

Does this look better to you guys? If so then I'll take better pics tomorrow.
