Aoshima Nissan 350Z

This is my latest finished work.
The body was painted with Arancio Borealis (Lamborghini) and used carbon fiber on hood, spoiler and wheels. The wheels and spoiler belong to the Nissan GTR Tamiya. Was added seat belts from Modeler's, pedals and Nitrous bottle from Mr. Model, the metal plate from Tamiya and tachometer with shift light was made of resin.
Thatīs it. Hope you like.

very nice build, but the rear wheels need to stick out more.

It makes it look a little weird, but don't get me wrong its an excellent build. The detail work is sweet. I like the cf on the wheels.

Try taking some outdoor shots in the sun!

Re: Aoshima Nissan 350Z

This is the first time I've seen scale carbon fiber wheels. I like it.

Fantastic build overall, the color combo is stunning, but have to agree on the rims!

Re: Aoshima Nissan 350Z

The wheels should come out more and give it that flush look. Looks great though!

Wheels in CF look great, how many decal-parts did you use at each wheel?

The rear wing on one single post look a little bit fragile

Re: Aoshima Nissan 350Z

Thanks guys. These photos were taken shortly after conclusion of the model.
The rear wheels have been set it out as possible as you will see in the pictures.
If I had left the wheels further out they would catch the edge of the fenders, or else would have to leave the car higher, and it would look like a tractor.
And finally, I do not like cars with wheels on the edge of the fenders or coming out of them.
I set the rear wheels too because they were off center and it was bothering me. But, this problem is from the kit.
New photos below.

Before and after to compare







Three new photos







In these photos you can see that the wheels are on the edge of the fenders





modelaholics, I made the texture of the seats with the 3m micropore tape.

sportracer02, was used only a piece of decal on each wheel.

Thatīs all folks.
