Cool Finished Nismo Skyline 350GT

Here's the thread from a few days back where I started it and was in the painting process:

Skyline and Z car build progress

This one gave me some paint problems, the paint crazed the plastic some, and even after solving that problem w/some less volatile thinner, the Tamiya clear re-etched the surfaces a bit. So after smoothing the two good coats of Tamiya, I changed to Gunze Mr. Topcote, and ended up using the entire can. The decals were applied after a couple coats, and then more coats were applied over the decals. Had I left the decals to dry longer, perhaps they wouldn't have gotten the few cracks in them... It's really not bad, but I was rushing. I really kept the interior/chassis simple. I love the color scheme, and the overall look. I matched the taillight treatment w/the headlight treatment.
