For the front, the lights really need a thin black line round them to remove the bright line you get round the plastic.
See how the lights are really dark on the real car!
Also notice how the line for the bonnet shut line isn't great on the model, the result if you glue it in place before painting!
DON'T! Glue it after all painting is done, using clear glue and not much of it!
This is all stuff you learn once you have made this model a few times!

My R34 (when I get one) will definitely be black. Not blue. Everyone does blue.

The third brake light on the model got too washed out. It looks pink.

Looks great on white, but you have a white R33!
Yellow also looks amazing!!!

Heh! It's already planned out... See, the Skylines are like a metaphor for my friends' Nissan Maximas (since they don't make Maixma kits). My friend Gil has a white 4th gen Maxima and my friend David has a black 5th gen. So, it's all planned out...

The R32 is totally fair game on the other hand. It'll have nothing to do with anyone's Maxima. So I think I'll choose gun gray metallic fot it.

I'd settle with a model of one, but I want the real white one
