Fujimi 1/24 Nissan Skyline PGC-10

Well it was finished yesterday, three hours before the local contest. I have won the first place with it!



Modifications:

Exterior
- correction of the rear fenders,
- corrected the line of the hood above the front lights,
- modified front spoiler (original is only the plane surface of the spoiler),
- writings on the sides (GT-R, Skyline), directional lights and window trims were made with BMF,
- PE wipers,
- antenna,
- I also simulated the light bulbs on the front lights

Interior
- flocking on the dashboard, floor and rear shelf,
- added 3-point PE seatbelts,
- modified seats (the head stopper if you crash :oops: ),
- PE pedals (Mr. Modeler),
- PE radio (Mr. Modeler),
- raised back seat for 3mm so that the shelf touches the glass/body

Chassis

- exhaust line was corrected and added aluminium muffler tips,
- I also had to modify the rear end of the chassis, so that it hides under the body
- rear axis moved to the front for 1mm,
- front suspension lowered for 2mm

I also painted door handles, steering wheel, and the bumpers with Alclad chrome.

It was painted with Tamiya's TS-58, lacquered with Zero's 2k clear coat
and polished with P2000 -> P4000 -> P6000 -> P8000 -> P12000 sanding papers:



Here are some highlights from the local competition.


All pictures of build summary and mods will follow, so please "stay tuned".


...and thank's for watching!
