    Finished* NISMO S15 Silvia

    This was a quick build of Aoshima's Vertex Ridge Silvia kit.

    I kept it simple just adding a different set of rims and Tamiya's Nismo decals.

    The body is painted with Nissan Liquid Aluminum with Tamiya TS13 clear coat.

    Interior is painted with Acryl Aircraft Interior Black.

    Fits well with my Nismo collection...some say I have Nismosis.

    - Yes I know the seats are mounted too far forward -

    Great build!
    The only small flaw I see is the rear wheels look like they've been mounted a little too far backward in the arches.
    What did the stock rims look like?
    "Kimi, can you improve on your [race] finish?"
    "No. My Finnish is fine; I am from Finland. Do you have any water?"

    Thanks!

    Aoshima kits are not the best engineered...fitment is a bit loose and inaccurate.

    The stock rims were TE37's...which actually fit the Nismo scheme but I wanted to try a different look.

    Nice job.

    Where exactly do you get the time to do all these models? Do you work from home or something?

    Do a bit here and there and sooner or later it's done.

    Simple ones like this take a surprisingly small amount of time.

    Great model!

    I really think there should be a model section in the website.

    wowowowoweewhoa. That is nice.
    I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.

    To be quite honest, I never knew that there was a NISMO Slivia.

    Looks brilliant with those decals. Cool car/model.
    Buying a car and not driving it is like buying a meal and not eating it.

    Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain one as an adult.
