Lb gt-r

I missed my old Stormtrooper so much I decided to make another. So I took my old and beaten Tamiya GT-R, stripped it, made a custom hood and read spoiler, adjusted the height, added Hobby Design wheels and PE, Studio27 carbon decals of course, a T2M harness and a Libertywalk transkit by Eightyone and got this...











I know the pics aren't the greatest, but I don't bother with that anymore. I just have not posted in a while. So I'm just trying to contribute to this lovely forum.
Thanks for looking!!

I think it is beautiful. The rear skirts and the color combo is super!

I'm glad you like them. I took me a while to make the Star Wars decals since they're the first I've ever made

Looks great as usual Carlos! Does have a sinister "Storm Trooper" look to it.

Thank you guys.
Ashman I found the kit to be quite nice. No real fitment issues and well crafted. Sandly it does not include a hood or rear spoiler, so I made mine.
