Wow! Beautiful! The paint is perfect. The wheels are a perfect choice. The entire thing is just magnifacent. All your models are a welcome break from the cutting edge new school set that are all over, and their quality helps make that that much more pleasant to look at! Great work! I can't wait to see more, espescially that crazy Auster!

Very nice!
The second picture kinda makes the bottom of the body look like a Ghost, the checker pattern just keeps on going on the reflection

Re: 1966 Nissan Silvia
WOW!!! Great work.
I looked at the first pic, and thought that it was a real pic. I thought it was like a reference that you used, then I looked closely and noticed that it was a model. Awesome work.

Thanks for the encouraging words guys... I wasn't to sure how something like this would go down here
 A lot of the things I'm making are a bit odd as I have so many old kits to put together. The next one to be finished is far more modern than this..well 1980's anyway  For the first time on this model I used some Kosutte-Ginsan to do the window surrounds rather than foil. It worked great but I decided to try and clear coat over it which dulled it a little..oh well The emblems are foil though. I've always hated foil as i could never master it. Until now. I had always used Modelers BMF but for one i got hold of some original BMF and what a difference! The modelers stuff is junk Kosutte-Ginsan is absolutely incredible stuff! If you have never tried it ..do. You won't be disapointed. It's by far got the best chrome finish I have ever seen. Beteen that and proper BMF I can't see me using much chrome silver paint any more  By the way, this kit is still available from HLJ I think. Either that or the Aoshima one is. I had a thought just after finishing mine. As the real car is built on a roadster chassis, I could have used a Fujimi Roadster kit as the base and had full engine and suspension detail. Shame I didn't think of that earlier  |

Re: 1966 Nissan Silvia
