VERY VERY NICE! The carbon decals are so nice. I say next time somebody buys that same model they need to scan in the carbon fiber decal so everyone can enjoy carbon fiber that is to scale.
Do you have any carbon fiber left over? Do you have a scanner? If you do then can you scan some of the carbon fiber for all of us to print out and use?

Nice Job, you use CF on the Wing! Love it. The rims on the skyline aren't my taste though..

Man is that sweet. The color scheme is cool with the yellow on the interior. I want a skyline so bad, but I must find one with engine detail and my hobby store is taking forever to order one with engine detail plus their prices are entirely to high. Any recomendations on other places to get it?

I've read about people buying a Tamiya R32 (there's an engine) and fit it on the Tamiya R33-34.
Apparently it's the same engine (?). It involves buying 2 kits but I think it's the cheapest way so far. Quote:

Thats a thought plus I would get two versions of the skyline which is always a plus. I am surprised there isn't some kind of after market engine detail kit for the Tamiya Skyline.

Believe me. if an aftermarket skyline engine is coming out, you're better off buying both kits, just look at the price of the Impreza WRC engine from S27...
That's crazy ! http://www.hlj.com/cgi-perl/hljpage.cgi?S27FP2445 Quote:

HIROBOY,
I really like the way you made the panel lines, did you use a darker shade of yellow? I was thinking about doing that with my next projects, instead of using black (well on bright colors at least) I was thinking about using a darker shade of the body color. The effect is right-on, it's subtle but still noticable.
