R-34 Skyline R-Tune progress thread

Hey. This one won't get smashed :grinno: . I had no intentions of starting another project but here it is anyway. This was a spare body and I was gonna use it as practice but then I sold my Z-Tune kit and had a change of mind. Thank GTMike400 for this thread; he got on me about not posting pics and I listened to him. :icon16: I'm still thinking about wheels. Thanks.

I love this color!!!

Wow, Tonio! Can't believe you weren't going to post pics of that. Fantastic colour and decal combination.

looking great!

Sweet :D

its a tamiya spray? if yes, which number?
its the tamiya or the aoshima kit?

Wonderful beast.
I'll imagine badass enough with smoked light's glass and black rims :)

Thanks guys:). TS-16 spray, Tamiya Z-Tune body, SAS Nismo front bumper and Tamiya detail parts (wheels will be black). Decals are mostly Tamiya with a few LauBak decals thrown in; the Nismo stripes were applied a bit differently than standard because I wanted to. Thanks :)

Nice work!

Hi. I have resumed progress on this project and pictures will commence shortly. I know the world needs another Skyline model :lol:.

Now that is pretty slick. Looking forward to more.

Not a fan of the color, but I envy those hood graphics...wish my model had em!!

Very nice :sunglasse

Sorry ahead of time for my little similar-subject hijack :uhoh:

My Aoshima Skyline kit was sitting too close to my Magnum SRT-8 kit :eek:

I hope this doesn't touch off WWIII on A/F...:lol:

Drive up to Atlanta on Saturday for our mini-palooza, we can both get a lot done on our models :naughty:

As much as I'd love to Bob, it won't be a reality for me:( I'm still in the trenches as a new guy on the job plus we're not fully staffed at our facility yet so my "expertise" is something they claim they need. :lol:I've got time off steadily building up though!:sunglasse

Fantastic color! Another great build from you. You need to share more Antonio :)

Very nice :sunglasse

Awesome! Very agreesive in yellow with black rims.

nice taste in color/wheels/vinyl. Keeping it fresh as always I see. :grinyes:

Hi. The interior is finished. I've used Tamiya sprays and Testors enamels for the colors. Dull red, NATO black, Matt black, Semi-Gloss black, Chrome silver, and Jet exhaust. Thanks for looking. :)

that interior looks great! clear color deliniation lines!

Pretty slick looking interior. Nice use of paints to bring out all the subtle differences of all the materials.

Finished (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=4612619#post4612619). Thanks for looking.:)
