1/24 Tamiya Mazda RX-7 FD-3S

Finished this one recently. Box-stock, painted Zero paints Innocent Blue Mica, Advantage HD 2K clear, Tamiya acrylics on the interior/rest. This is one of the JDM versions of the car (Efini RX-7) with no engine detail. Glued the hood shut to make panel lines nice and even. Terrific Tamiya kit.

Superbly clean as always Alex!
Some detailing with a drill and a drop of black on the exhaust pipes will make it perfect.

Yup, but it was a box-stock build, so mods were not allowed I guess I coudl have made the tips black-er
