My first finished R34 GT-R

Hi y'all! This was my first finished R34 (I have 2 others lying around). Model is Aoshima R34 GT-R V-Spec II and I have to say there were a few cons why I wont buy another one. First the front bumber doesn't fit properly, when I attached it to the chassis plate (not to the body?) it didn't line up with fenders front edge -all scewed up. And the plastic is kinda funny, I layed a Tamiya white basecoat and first I tried a Motip Acrylic automotive spraycan -didn't work. After that Testor's Boyd's acrylic arctic met. blue with airbrush and I had to paint it again three times and it's still half decent paintjob :banghead: no clear, wax or polishing! DId'nt want to waste more time to this P.O.S! Oh, one more thing, I used liquid glue for the headlight lenses, but they fogged so you shoul use enamel clear or something. Here are the pics.

I was thinking the same thing, but other then that the car looks great.

Looks good, what kind of wheels are those?

the front wheels are turned to left so they look a bit funky.

Well done: fantastic rims, just a kind of 5 spoke BBS

wow good job especially since this is your first its very claen to. i am also busy trying to make my first skyline r33 and am in the midst of using my modeling clay to make veilside type bumbers and skirts. good job!

Nice :)

Nice looking build. One of these days Im gonna have to but one of these kits
