Nissan R34 Z-Tune - Tamiya 1/24

[Mixalz]

Hi everyone.

I also wrapped up this little project today and I must say it was a pleasure working on this one. Despite the problems along the way with body warp I think this came out well. One regret I have is using the front number plate. Instead I should have filled the mounting point. The intercooler has Nismo painted on it and now this little detail is only visible at an angle. Aside from that I'm happy.

Sorry if the photos are a bit shadowy. I do plan on buying another lamp for a second light source. Feedback welcomed.

Hi Ian. Thanks for the kind comment. 

One thing I will say about this kit. If you try to cut the seat notches out it is rather difficult. I tried one but the angle of approach is to difficult so I ended up refilling the area. I am aware others have successfully done it but I felt its was too risky for my skills.

Thanks Michael - Good 'heads-up', I'm mainly an aircraft modeller and have to do that sort-of-thing fairly often to open-up access panels and the like. Should be ok but I'll keep it in mind.
