During my move,I got rid of all the paint and brushes... I felt I wouldn't be able to do modeling again.
In 2016, I went to Japan and was given a few Nissan leopard models. I got back to the US and started to get into it.
One model was pre painted, it was a Zenki F31 Leopard. I slapped that together and enjoyed it.
Since I am into F31 leopards and Infiniti M30s (I own F31club) I decided to make one of the models a convertible for fun.
I was gonna run through it just to get it completed, but I decided I need to dedicate some time and make it right! It is almost done. Gotta paint the tail lights.
Well, being an F31 enthusiasts, I ended up trying to collect the older models of the F31 Leopard
I got a couple more that I want and I will be content with these. The box art is what grabs me and something I didn't appreciate when I was younger.
I'm also at the point where I won't make these and just keep them as is.
So what got me back into modeling again was as I was collecting the F31 models, the Slit Mask (which is older) was in a bundle. I decided to get the bundle. There was the term "junk"in the description, but what it was is that most of the model was there, but the previous owner took body kits and wheels from the various models.
Most of these are Skyline models. The previous owner throw in extra sets, even though some wheels or body kit might be missing. An example is that the Machine RS 2 and 3 are in one box. Another box had 2 R31 skylines, one missing the kit, other wheels. Everything else was still there.
Nobody was gonna buy them, so I figure, why not complete them!

Then I scored a model I have wanted for a long time.
