Talking Finished Falken Skyline !

Whelp I finished the skyline I promised for the month of April and I must say it was a blast to build because everything went together so smoothly except the stupid green decals so I left the green out. Enjoy the pics and leave me any critiques, opinions you want, I appreciate them all good or bad. Thank everyone.

Here is what it looks like on the box:


and here is what mine looks like:

I know !.... the side decals for the green looked sweet, but the front bumpers decals kept ripping to pieces on me and the hood wood not unwrinkle. I spent two hours just trying to get the green stuff to lay right but without any decal solvent to soften them to form the cars lines I decide to scrapem. I am so pissed that I couldn't get them on, but oh well still not bad for a newbie at this.

The Falken looks nice.

Subaru Tour De Monte?
It's either the Tour De Corse or Rallye Monte Carlo....

I believe that is the Monte Carlo kit
It's Tour de corse.

Btw, the R32 look nice, keep up the good work.

Nice work. Too bad about the green decals - I kinda hate them too!!!
But as Chain said - you tried and that's the important bit!

Good job, I would have liked to see the green decals on it, but oh well. It looks like the Calsonic R32
