R32 GT-R in Custom Color

[carl63_99]

Just finished the Tamiya Nissan GT-R. What a lovely kit, everything goes together so nice, alignment was perfect, zero problems.

Color is a custom mix of Testors turn signal amber metallic with stoplight red metallic and a pinch of white pearl. Pics don't do the color justice, it pops in sunlight. Only mods I did were heat shield on the catalytic converter and screen and intercooler in front.

That looks great! I have 2 bottles of the amber, one is wrong, too light. Great inspiration to use it! Not bass-boat metalflake.

Is that window screen for the grille?

No, it's the screen that comes with many Tamiya kits. I have a few pieces of it, been using it for many projects over the years.
