72 skyline 2000 GT

[Gt fan]

This is just a quick build to kill some time while my Ferrari is drying. I wanted to try some new weathering pencils from AK that I picked up. Chassis and body were all done in about 4hrs . Chrome on the body was done with a 1mm Motlow chrome pen. I will add black details after it drys. The pencils are wonderful to work with and have a great results. The were sold individual or in sub-sets or a complete set. Dash gauges were done with pencils as well

Thank you,, the color is Testors Nassau Blue, I had a can laying around and it looked like a good 70’s color.  It has one coat of Testors wet look clear on it.  Came out pretty good , I’m more familiar with Tamiya sprays . Interior will be grey . Pencils worked very well and easy to use , you have to keep them sharp. I just ordered more from Mega Hobby.

Very nice work on that chassis,  brought that simple chassis to life.

Thank you.. This was a cheap kit to have around to try something new. The fit in the kit is a bit wonky but they give you a bunch of extra parts. Three sets of wheels and extra seat and has photo etched emblems. Not bad for $22.00
