Building a Midnight Purple III R32 GT-R 1/24 Tamiya Scale Model car

[@garygritter5701]

The end result was more than what I bargained for, you ever thought about getting into bodywork on cars, that finish is out of this world.

[@JHHobby]

Thanks man😁😁 actually my real time job is working on automotive paint and bodywork😂

[@JDMMaster26]

That result is something more than just perfect

[@JHHobby]

Thanks man!!🤗🤗😄😄

midnight purpleがgtr 32をさらにカッコ良くしますね👍　 プラモデルって概念を吹き飛ばす仕上がりです！ 実車みたいで最高っス✨

[@taxissch.4204]

I just bought that tamiya Skyline R32 and I am looking forward to make something special! Thanks for your shared ideas!

[@JHHobby]

Great! Hope to see your builds😁

[@KarlScaleModeling]

Oh wow, great work there. Looks so great everywhere and all those little details, like drilling the disc brakes, really made it look realistic once finished. Colour is amazing too, very Well Done 👍👍

[@JHHobby]

thank you thank you! glad you like it =D

[@rldays9179]

Another idea for interior is get phone screen protectors and cut out the dash shape and stick it over the instrument panel for glass look

[@JHHobby]

cool tip! thanks

[@MrAONZBRUTE]

I love the fact that you put those LM-GT2 wheels on this car. They obviously look much better than the LM-GT4 that come with the kit 💜

[@JHHobby]

Haha yes! Its my fav wheel on r32 too!😍

[@MrAONZBRUTE]

@@JHHobby haha, I think LM-GT4s only look good on R34, 350Z..😂😂

[@JHHobby]

Thanks man!😄

[@dirtyd2316]

One of my all time favorite model kits. I don’t know how many times I bought this kit as well as the regular black r32 gtr Tamiya kits over the years to either build or used to kit bash for the engine and other parts to use in other builds. I’ve done the same with the Tamiya Supra kit as well for the 2j. Don’t get me wrong cause the hobby design engine kits are nice but in some kits the look a little to small and outta scale and why pay almost 50 bucks if not more for their engine kit when I can pay a complete Tamiya model with the engine and car for 20 to 30 bucks and have plenty of parts left over and can still build the car without the engine if I used the engine outta it for something else.

[@coloneldd]

N1 Vents, MPIII, LM GT2 Wheels but to become a Pro you forgot the bubble in the Dash :)

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

I loved the video JH! I especially liked the beginning: taking parts out of the bags, clipping the parts and placing them on the table. I may do something similar in the future. I also like how you reference your other videos, so smart! Great build and great video, I look forward to your next. -James

[@JHHobby]

Haha glad you like it! Yes i learn tht from other youtubers too😆 to make it more interesting for everyone to watch😄

[@DriftInJapan]

That color looks so good. I bet that can of paint cost a bit.

[@JHHobby]

Haha yea..this MP3 cost at least 5 times a normal paint😅😂

[@hasiosznupek]

I have the same one and it turned out bad but yours is perfect! The color is amazing too!

[@JHHobby]

its ok =) keep building and you will build really nice model too

[@VirtuallySky]

I like this model

[@truenorthscalemotorsports527]

Great build. I am doing the base R32 for a group build in the same colour and the same wheels, chosen before seeing yours, but hoping it comes out close to this nice. Will be checking out more of your vids while I wait for my kit and wheels to arrive.

[@JHHobby]

thanks man! haha this combo is one of my favourites..it just suit perfectly~ i believe you can ! =)

[@Wesley_C]

Nice, my best GTR legend, good work, this car's looks great.

You need to make a sales website or something, customers send in requested builds, you build and ship them, and charge to make a profit. I know I'd buy from you if I had any money.

[@eduardobellosalazar6618]

Brutal!

[@mattiapresti7295]

Yeah, the greatest problem of theese projects: how to have the right paint? I've a 1/43 Bburago (toy) Diablo which is painted in Diablo jota purple. I don't think that I can find the jota, special edition and Lamborghini, purple from automotive at reasonable price, priorly considering that I only need to cover a pay of scratches on the wing. I hope that the Midnight purple, color of special Nissans that didn't have success in Italy, may be quite similar, and however a more serious kit about one of theese cars maybe required to don't waste moneys. The box is great, was it in the kit's box?

[@v3r059]

Super cool build!! But does the hood open on these model cars?

[@JHHobby]

[@billywhizz98]

Nicely done what glue do you use for the models

[@JHHobby]

I use few different types of glue depending on the parts and surface. Tamiya cement, UHU glue, and some super strong liquid glue

[@billywhizz98]

I have used some of that UHH glue but it’s too playable when you put the likes of mirrors on you can pull on them and it’s like elastic I have used double sided tape for the windows because I don’t want to fog the up with glue

[@titaniummechanism3214]
