And here is mine:




The lights made from a sucker rod. There will be a clear red styrene on the the rods..

Yes, you're right! It's from a Chupa Chups (I think it's written like that) lolly pop...

I drilled 4 holes, then cut 4 pieces 1 cm long sticks then fixed with cyanoacrylate.

Re: "WIP" Open RX-7 Asamoto

wow, this is impressive, gteat work m8!

the pic of the tails you found are modified to resemble those from an rx8. So if you need another referance pic, do a google search for rx8 and you should see better pics of said tails.
