Nissan Silvia (S13) Aoshima 1:24 scale

Here are some photos of my latest car model.

It is another model depicting one of the cars from the Japanese Manga series Initial D.

 

I hope you like it.

Cheers

Umm, taking a real car and shrinking it to 1:24 scale to me is cheating! lol!

That looks amazing! How did you get the intake plenum to look like anodized metal? If that's painted it's spectacular! Over all very well done.

Beyond phenomenal. The best part of the whole model is the engine bay. I tip my virtual hat to you good sir. Well done.

Kick the tires and light the fires!

Beauty.  Did the engine come with the injectors and all the goodies?

Thanks,

John

Thank you! Your comments are too kind. Most items in the engine bay are painted (metallic paints are from either Alclad II or Vallejo). As far as I remember only the hose clamps are not painted (they were made with aluminum tape and solder wire). The injectors on the intake manifold are indeed included in the kit. I've only added some hoses, a few boxes and all the electric wiring. Cheers
