Nissan Calsonic Skyline

[Hubert Rollins]

Here's my first build of 2015. Tamiya Nissan Calsonic Skyline. My first Tamiya kit. Have to say it was a pretty good one. My interest in this one came from my love of playing racing games like Gran Turismo and Forza Motorsport. Box stock. Took me 3 paint jobs to get it right. First time I tried to settle with the testors blue enamel that Hobby Lobby had. Mistake. She took a bath in degreaser. Second time I had er slick and went through while polishing. So the THIRD time I laid on 5 coats clear and it finally worked out. While I was impressed with the kit, I was NOT impressed with their spray paint. Went on slick and as it dried it fuzzed up something awful. The slick paint you see is the 5 coats of clear and a lot of elbow grease. Hope everyone likes it.
