Finished: Tamiya Calsonic Skyline GT-R 2003
Hi!
I've just finished my Calsonic Skyline, and thought i would post some pictures here. This is my first "serious" model. I have built a lot before, mostly Tamiya's Military Miniature, but also some cars. But this is the first time I have spray painted the body, used a loooong time (which obviously gives a much better result), even if I should use a bit longer time on my next model. Had a rush when it was almost finished so... hehe.  The body is painted with Tamiya TS-44 Brilliant Blue, with two layers clear coat. I was very happy with the shine, but unfortunately it doesn't show very well on the pictures. Well, here goes... Click the images for larger version         And yes, it's completely stock

Re: Finished: Tamiya Calsonic Skyline GT-R 2003
i wish my calsonic skyline (2003) looked like that, a very neat, tidy example and a well exectued model. great paint work and decal work. for a box-stock its a pretty amazing peice of work. you certainly have a first serious model to be proud of. im sure anyone who made a car to such a fantastic result as you have would be extremely proud and pleased, i know i would. well done agian and i hope to see more of your work, its certainly impressive if i may say so.
