F40 & Nismo Skyline R33 *warning lots of pics*
The Ferrari was my first model EVER! I started it last june and finished it in 4 weeks...I think it came out pretty nice, if you don't mind me saying so
 . The Kure was next. It took me about the same time..3-4 weeks. And I tried some things on this one..I added the automatic fire extinguisher and some air lines to the hydraulic jacks..I'd really like to hear your opinion on both..          Enjoy (or not.. )

Very very nice! May I ask what you used for a paint color on the exhaust of the Skyline?
Really nice work! Chris |

thanks for your comment. please do notice these are only my 2 first models ever.....
I only use Tamiya acrylics, and if I recall, the exhaust is X-9 (brown) or XF-10 (flat brown). I'm not really sure. Edit - I just confirmed that, and it is X9..

At least I can see the pictures, and the cars look really nice. The Skyline is a bit interesting with that "half engine", which is detailed only from the bottom... I guess, the hood doesn't open.
But really good job, especially the chassis of the skyline looks nice, and I also like those tubes and wires in the cockpit of the Nissan, and the Ferrari is not bad at all, I might even get that kit too, looks so nice. Was it built "just from the box" or did you do any special detailing? |

As the F40 was my first model, I didn't have any experience, so I didn't want to add anything that could ruin it, you know what I mean? It's completely box stock, apart from some detail painting.And yes, the Nissan is a curbside kit...
