The Skyline GT-R R34 vspec II

I've just accomplished building my first model, and I'm very proud, so don't butcher the model. After all it's my first of many to come. I know the paint is not as good as it should have been on the rear skirt, but I found it quite difficult to spray them perfectly. Anyhow, here's my model:

Thanks! You're too kind, but I was actually quite pleased with the final result. I'm going to put on some licenseplates and rev-lights, but that's all there is. Tomorrow I'm going to buy myself a new model... I think I will go for the 350Z. Silver coloured, or the Honda S2000 with painted chassis. It doesn't really matter which of them I choose, because I'm going to purchase them both anyway.

Nice for your first...But may I make a few sugestions. The front underspoiler looks as if it was brushed, and the wing supports should be any type of aluminum color. Other that those, It looks good!

Thanks for the tips. I will make the changes... Actually the rear spoiler supporters were painted by a mistake, but i don't think it will be too hard to edit the colour. As far as the colour on the front spoiler is concerned, I have noticed that it really is a bit glossy. I will have to paint it over with a matt paint.

I know. It's on purpose. I didn't bother to paint the one that is supposed to have a colour when I had poured white-spirit on the brush
They are coming on tomorrow perhaps. You will also find the answer to that in my second post
