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?

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.

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