Smile C-West Mazda RX-7 FD3S

Hello Everybody ,

Iīm watching this forum for a long time and now I think the time is right to show here some of my work. I hope you guys like my cars as I do, and forgive me my incomplete English skills.

Here is my favourite Japanese car and my first built Aoshima kit. I had much fun with it, until I the problems with painting started.
The first paint (orange pearl) didnīt work with the clear cote, so I repainted it purple. As it was completed, it had a bad accident, so the 3rd paintwork had to be done Now I have orange and purple and I did the best to get this result.

This I have done: lowering, scratch built hood vent and rear wing, SAS CF decals on the bonnet, wings and interior. I also added some SAS Sparco Corsa seats, Sparco seat belts from Eduard, some gauges, NOS bottle and mirrors.










Now Iīm working on my second FD, but this is for later. So, what you think?

Very cool RX-7. Paint looks superb, is that a custom mixed color?

Thanks, and yes. The paint looks expensive, right? But it was very cheap, I mixed it from nailpolish

Re: C-West Mazda RX-7 FD3S

Looking cool!
The wgole car is great work, but this rims is not match the car, maybe one inch bigger, and chrome rims are look nicer, but this is my opinion...
