Re: Another Aoshima S15 Silvia Aero In Progress
Looks sweet...can I ask where you ordered the kit from? HLJ, or another source?

Decided to take advantage of a nice dry sunny day (you can never be sure of when the next one will be over here in the UK
 ) and sprayed this one Tamiya Mica Blue over a silver base. Clearcoat to follow. Thanks for looking Andy

Re: Another Aoshima S15 Silvia Aero In Progress
Coming along very nicely.
I have just had to swap both my Silvia kits for parts for my 1:1 Skyline so I've ordered more from HLJ, so it'll be a while before I get to work. Oh well I watch yours instead

It may just be the angles of the pictures, but looking at the Aoshima versus the Fujimi it looks as if the Aoshima kit's greenhouse is overall bigger except shorter than the Fujimi's, and is more in line with the sides of the body than the Fujimi. The sides seem a little shorter, though.
Have to get some measurements to see which one is accurate, but the Aoshima looks a lot more correct. Good to see that they nailed the prettiest coupe in Japan.

A bit of progress on this one - the paints been polished out and lights etc fitted up. Thought I'd messed things up as although the instructions suggest adding the aero kit last but I always add it before the colour coat and suddenly realised that there might be a problem with fitting the front light unit. However panic over as you can just slide the unit in from inside the body and twist it into position. Just thought I'd mention it as a heads up for anybody building the kit. The rear lights come as 3 pre-coloured lenses although you have to paint the black surround yourself. All-in-all I'm pretty impressed witht the engineering of the kit so far and haven't come across any problems - anyway here's the pics of where I am currently.
  Thanks for looking - sorry the pics aren't too good - grey & raining over here as usual  Andy
