Yes, yes. I know the Skyline is overrated and just blah.
It is my favorite car and I really want a scale model of it on my desk.
My problem is, I'm a new modeler, I'm 15 years old, I don't have an airbrush kit either.
I'm trying to find a kit to build off of. I also need to find the correct decals for the car. I don't know where I can get a Skyline chassis, or a C-west body kit.
Can someone help me?

Tamya makes a ton of Skylines have you checked them out?

Yes I have, I have found one from Tamiya. I believe it's the same one this guy used, just with aftermarket decals, spoiler and interior from another place. I actually want this exact car right here(with maybe a closer shaped decal like on the real car): If someone could help me, I would gladly appreciate it.[How would I go about making the decals?]       Sorry for all the images! |

Search Ebay for the kit. The decals you can print on your printer Testors has a decal print kit on Ebay as well.

I found the kit that I'm going to buy: www.hlj.com/product/AOS04101And thanks for telling me about the decal maker, now I can definitely stop worrying about where to get the decals! Now I just need to find the right rims for the Skyline, I don't like the ones that come with that kit. [I'm picky sorry!]. I'm not sure if they have a scale model rim set of 1/24 but the rims on the 2F2F skyline are HRE 446 rims.  If they don't, I'll probably use stock rims. I also have another question, how do I paint something without painting another area that I don't want to be painted? Say like the spoiler on the skyline, I want to paint the support black, but paint the spoiler itself blue. I'm not very good at tight spots such as the door cracks being black. And is HobbyLinc.com a good place to buy models? Because I'm about to order the Skyline from there |

Stock rims look good but I would go wild on this kit, search for the KILLER rims it will be worth it.

I might use Konig Blatant rims and I'll see about those killer rims

Killer is an expression not a brand. I meant something KILLER, WILD..etc.
