WIP: Tamiya Skyline

hey all, i know this isnt the best model build but i wanted to share my progress with you guys anyways. i just finished up the motor and front suspension and the body is base coated just waiting for it to dry to clear it.

tell me what you think.

heres the body painted completely. its dry to the touch so the sheen should stay exactly how it is now but i plan on polishing it as well. came out pretty good IMO

The color looks really nice is that a white? Or is the light making a different shade pop out? it looks really good! What are your plans? Major mods? Minor Mods? OOB? Looking great!

Wow, a skyline. my favourite of all cars, although i do prefer the R34. I will definately be watching this thread, to see what you can do with my baby :P

Great job on the paint!

Still not done obviously but i started on the window mouldings. they came out alright but i wish they were a little better. i also put the headlights in and pretty much finished the underbody and enginebay. what do u think?

That is superb! I have always been a fan of the R32! But, I have never been a fan of mold lines on front bumpers!
