Stupendous work! I really love the GP Sports FC, and this one your building is just awesome!
Keep it up.

Re: progress: rx7 fc GP sports?

looks good! after you have the basic shape u want try useing Bondo spot glazing putty. its at the auto store and is in a orange tube! dries fast as hell when applied thin and sands easily. doesnt leave a million air pocket holes like the tamiya stuff does. i use the bondo from start to finish on my kits! try it

Re: progress: rx7 fc GP sports?

cool...coming together very nicely. slow and steady wins the crown, or in this case, an accurate body kit.

Re: progress: rx7 fc GP sports?

that looks awesome, just like the GP Sports kit. Are you going to stick with those rims on the car? and dont do a CF sumroof, keep it the color of the car
