I have been watching this thread for some time now. I have showed my early interest in your poll when it started, The progress confirms to us that there is going to be a really detailed upgrade kit on offer. I have the fujimi kit sitting around but havent had the balls to start, and continue to show interest in your continuing hard work. Congrats on the 1:1 R32, keep up the great work..

Ok, now you guys are buying these skylines like their cheap. Maybe am doing something wrong cause I would love to have a skyline shipped to the U.S. especially having the steering wheel on the other side. Dreams, if I only could live them. Is 29 too old to dream.

Yo, Hiro lets get going on the model man, JK, but seriously lets get going on that beauty your making.

I am also thinking of getting a Skyline... probably a R33 GTR. Something for race only so I wouldn’t haft to do a conversion. Anyway how the hell did they get into it to take them? That’s messed up.

Done a bit more at the weekend, The body was given a few coats of primer and then sanded with 2000 grade, then 6 coats of Nissan Bayside Blue with the airbrush. I now need to clear coat.
I decided not to mod the body work on this on, maybe then the next one.
I'm trying to decide what to do with the bonnet, I was going to Carbon Fibre it but none of the 1:12 sheets cover this bonnet in one peice (just a bit too small). I think it will be blue as well.

Oh yeah, the interior has been airbrushed and the carpet done.

Thanks for looking
