Good looking colour. Bummer about the paint.

That closest brake looks like one from my daughter's car. "Daddy, my car makes a funny noise when I stop."

I'm always, always down for a Z car.

I have been debating whether or not to get this particular kit. I don't really build large scale stuff, but it looks tempting.

Great kit. Looks like you're doing it justice.

I got it fairly cheap so couldn't really say no lol  i dont mind building larger kits as can get a lot more detail  tbh i would say get it as the detail is superb

Bad about your paint issue but it’s something you can overcome…

That color suits the car perfectly. I have the 1/24 scale version that I plan on building once I get a couple of other projects completed.

Yes, it is the Tamiya kit. Looking forward to diving into it.

That color is sick!! I need to get some in my stash! 

I have a couple skylines, and planned on doing one in Titanium, and now I have the color for the other. 

Love the work so far!
