20B powered Veilside Fortune RX7

Hey guys n gals

I present to you, the beast
Full WIP thread is on SPC.
Not perect, I know, but I am very happy with the outcome and the fact its finally done after a long journer. But heres the pics anyway.
The entire engine and bodywork is all scratchbuilt.

Sorry for the huge amount, got a bit carried away



























































































I got a bit bored whilst uploading lol

That's cool! Great work! The custom work is amazing. I love the body work, and I really, rally love that 3 rotor motor! So cool.

I think its a stunning model. The body work is intensive and the motor looks badass. Im sure you will get more responses Taz, maybe a link to the wip would be helpful. So people don't think its a diecast? I love it.

Re: 20B powered Veilside Fortune RX7

Nice to see it finally finished, Taz! It's a beauty!
And luckily nobody crashed this one like the 240SX if I remember correctly...
Did you make any resin copies of the body?

Re: 20B powered Veilside Fortune RX7

thanks mate!!
Yeah, you remembered right, it was close though, becasue on that sameday, my baby nephew pulled this out of the cabinet!! On top of that, while I was at Uni, I put the car on a shelf, and when a friend came over, he knocked the entire shelf over which had the fortune and the s13 on it!! I have no idea how they survived that. lol

Re: 20B powered Veilside Fortune RX7

It looks amazing! Those crazy Jap's like those extreme body kits. For a scratch build I would say it's perfect and I'd love to have something like that setting on my shelf. I'm just to reserved to do something that nuts!

cheers mate!
You shouldnt be too reserved to build anything mate! The only thing you need to be good at is being patient, and thats something all modelers get better at.

Re: 20B powered Veilside Fortune RX7

haha thanks mate

It didnt actually take 3 years, becasue I had built an entire model in between building this.... and on that model, had to rebuild the shell becasue the first got smashed after all the bodywork had been done. So yeah

Thanks
