1970 Skyline 2000 GT-R Hardtop

Hi All,

Well, I am new to this forum, and fairly new to modelling, I havent built a kit for a long time (about 15 or so years).

I saw this kit on Ebay, and as I am a big Classic Jap metal fan I got it, and this is the result.

I made a few newbie mistakes on it, the biggest was getting some glue on the windows, needless to say it created some fairly hefty "burns", still, at least I wont do that again!!.

Enjoy!!!.

Dan.

Looks really nice. I think these old Skylines have such a cool look. I'd say your back into the swing of things just fine.
