Skyline GtR 34 Japan Street Version

Well.. Hello everybody.
This is my second model painted with airbrush. A little detail the process of making homemade suspension and full exhaust. I hope you like it.

The idea is a street car from Japan with some tweaks ...

Looks great, I love the blue.

For the skyline decal on the wing, try some decal softener, it may get rid of the film-like shadow that the rest of the decal left on there.

Re: Skyline GtR 34 Japan Street Version

Ok, I understand that you mean. But I do not have many options in my country. (no store model)
In this case, or the serial or those who got ...

Sorry, the truth that sometimes we just wrapped up where it gives us the blanket!

But thanks for the comment

I am very glad you like it. I think it's a great kit. And in fact showed no problem. I take approximately three months to finish it ...

Re: Skyline GtR 34 Japan Street Version

Great build. Body looks quite fat to me...what brand kit is this? Intercooler and exhaust look really good. How did you make the brackets that hold the exhaust on (near the catalytic converter and muffler)?

Re: Skyline GtR 34 Japan Street Version

Thank you for your comments!

The kit is brand Fujimi.

It is quite simple to make the brackets for the exhaust system.

1-Degree Tin very sharp.

2-Rubbing between two very flat surfaces to get it right straight (such as needle)
3-Crush the plane are to put it!

I have no photos of the process, but it's quite simple!

If you need to do the photos for you, later.

Re: Skyline GtR 34 Japan Street Version

Next time you can try wetting the decal with some floor wax. It makes the entire decal shiny so the film will be much less noticeable.

This is the first time i see the R34 made by fujimi. Looks like they just put a GTS/25GT front bumper there and called it a day.
