Finished: Big Bad Loctite GTR34

hi guys, let me introduce to you my newest model, the Tamiya Loctite Zexel R34 GT-R Skyline JGTC (what a mouthfull)

I pretty much built the model box stock , but at the last fase, i did some detailing to resemble more like some of the reference pictures I had laying around.

The details are...
Black side mirrors (not red, but both are possible)
Underside details and wood-effect
Drybrushing on mechanical components
Wiring of the interior
Blackwashing on the interior and on the brakes
Detailed the rims , like they should be (red and blue details and highlighted surfaces.
Second antenna added.
And I had some major trouble getting the front lights to look like the real deal, so I put in , instead of the clear plastic a piece of photographical film, darkened to the right shade of gray (thanks Michael ! )
Also, on the sides , you might notice the aluminium wires to hold the boards into place, as is with the real car.

there is still one thing that has to be done... paint some of the bolts on the body , and put a carbon lip on the rear spoiler.

kit went together without any problems whatsoever, and I loved it , and didn't want to make a box-stock model, so a bit details can make this car truly stand out...

Tell me what you think of it, guys!

Olivier

Nice! Very clean and realistic! Now stop finishing models so fast, you're making me fill like a slug!

Excellent job, that looks really good. Makes me want to start building JGTC models again! Perhaps after I finish my current stack of unfinished kits I'll start one some.
