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:

looks fine to me...i like it good job:D

very nice

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.

looks good, looks real good

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.

First of all...thats a pretty good effort at your first model

Sorry to be picky, but I just noticed also that you forgot the 2 lights beside the Rear Licence Plate....just a thought

I must say that there are a lot of nice people here, and what a welcome! I've admired all of your cars primera man. I think they are great, and they inspire me to make flawless models in the future :)

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 ;)

Great job on a first kit, you do better than I do and I've built a couple of kits already.

Lookin forward to the 350Z or the S2000!:)

I agree, with Chris.
Good work, hope to see the 350Z soon.

Welcome to the club! Stick around, and you'll learn a lot!

Anyways, that model is waaaay better than my first car. Too me, only one thing looks wrong, it may be just me, but you should paint the inside of the muffler black for a more realistic look! Other than that, looks cool! :cool:

It is beautiful !!! Congrats on your first kit ~
