Should have more progress pics tommorow (I'm currently sitting here watching paint dry).


Now I have to try and find this kit so I can make it for myself
The only one I can find is the R34 Calsonic.

Great work!

I have had an eye out for it for some time now, wouldn't mind building it myself.

here is an updated pic



All that is left is a good going over with Tamiya compound, application of lights, decals and the rear spoiler.

Haven't decided if it will need a clear coat yet , probably not

I don't like how "fake" the rear indicators look when done to the instructions, so I am trying something different.

First bare metal foil was placed over where the indicator is and pressed down firmly trying to get it right into the groove. The BMF was then painted in Tamiyas clear orange. Once this has dried then I will cut around the indicator and hopefully end up with 2 decent looking indicators.



the view from the front:
