350z Nismo
I like to keep myself occupied...though I should be more concentrated on my last semester for a university acceptance. Ahahaha!
The ER34's almost done (need glue and paint), and the R33's on hiatus (i broke the hood...FFFFUUU--), and I don't wanna start putting my GTR under the knife, I decided to try something new. http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...nismo-2007.gif I present to you, the start of the 350z Nismo. body with some cuts to the bumpers http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...a/DSC05442.jpg the rear bumper http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...a/DSC05441.jpg here, i made an outline for the hood's style lines. http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...a/DSC05439.jpg and I made progress on the front. http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...a/DSC05446.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...a/DSC05444.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...a/DSC05443.jpg Comments and criticism welcome! |
if the putty work turns out just as good as your other project....this is going to look awesome. :D :D :D
|
Looks like a good start.
Keep it up! :cool: |

|
Solid work! Impressive w/ the putty.
|
ahhh darn you, you beat me to the nismo 350z body. anyways looking forward to seeing it finished.
|
inspired by tactiKal's use of styrene, i did that and put putty over. (Y) good weight save.
just showing some progress. http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...a/DSC05447.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...a/DSC05448.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...a/DSC05449.jpg it kinda looks like an amuse s2000 front, doesnt it? |
already looks great, cant wait to see what the finished product looks like. what were you thinking of doing for paint? same orange or going another direction.
|
i say silver with a graphite grey body kit...

thanks for the pictures xmodzracer! i couldnt find some good sized photos myself :P.
as for paint scheme, i was thinking either grey, flat black, white, or monochrome/panda. |
anytime ;-) well almost anytime lol. its my dads car haha so i have few others if youd like them. im still saying the silver with gray trim scheme... ive seen white nismos and they arent all that black ones are ok and monochrome is just eh... these look best in gloss black with the gray trim, red with the gray, or silver imo

updates!
i need to extend this. but the top half is done: http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...a/DSC05453.jpg also started on the rear. it took so long to get a proper outline: http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...a/DSC05451.jpg http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...a/DSC05454.jpg and started on the hood: http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...a/DSC05455.jpg with reference to: http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k4...ja/NisZ005.jpg tips and comments welcome! |
Lookin really great man! Yeah using styrene for the kit really is an amazing weight savings over using strictly putty!! I'm enjoying watching your progress! Keep it up!
|
looks great! i like it. can't to see more updates! haha ;P
|
great lookin car. cant wait for the finished product.
|
I actually reallly like this. I myself am a huge fan of Nissan and Nismo, and to see someone make a nismo car (First time I've seen one :P) is very interesting. Im keen to see how this project turns out.
|
Man I've been lookin at this for a while and I'm amazed at all the talent with putty and styrene LOL You and Dr. Kustom really make true works of art at the 1/28 scale. Great work man keep it up!!!
|
