Cool - In Progress: Tamiya Skyline R33 GT-R V-spec -

Well here it is my Skyline in progress. This is my first progress thread so help me out, but its not my first model. Im also currently working on a Fujimi Integra, which is my first model and is almost done (just needs painting and a little touch up). The reason you dont see any of the model actually put togeather is becuase I dont have any more glue but since i got bored I started painting some parts Im still thinking of some colors I might want to paint it, so if you have any ideas dont hesitate to post em. Heres the pix:


Seats are being painted soon

Freshly painted chassis:


NOTE: This is only my second model so mistakes happen

Looks pretty good. I suggest some bigger rims. They always suit a Skyline very well

Yea I want something shiny that'll stick out so metal flake would be good.

Looks good so far. Just remember, no build is a complete failure, you always learn from your mistakes.

Blue always looks nice on a Skyline. It's not a very risky color, if done properly you already know it'll look nice. Midnight purple is the same thing. I like the exhaust btw. Does that come with the kit??? I think not...
