Very nice!

Kaci..very nice job on  both.   Followed your WIP. I built this kit about 15yrs ago.  Took me about the better part of a month. (was still working then, retired now)  1/12 kits take some time to do (built my fair share)  but you are done in less than  a week.  It no rush job either, really looks good.  Care to share your secret??

Very nice! Lovely how the metalflake catches the sun light.

i generally do all the body painting door assemblies first then as they are curing start on the sub assemblies so by time paint cured i can start installing the suspension then all other parts are pre painted on the trees by hand then just a case of assembly

Clean builds , they make a very nice duo.

A couple of fine Datsuns. I really dig the green hue. It reminds me of a green 240z I considered buying a few years back.
