NSX & RX7 Completed!! (10 pics inside)

just wanted to share my last two completed projects. i started them at the beginning of the year and finished them last week... i've been waiting for a good chance to take some pictures of them outside. Its been really really cold out here in NY. They are both tamiya kits. the NSX was packaged as an Acura but i "converted" it into a Honda. The front and rear emblems were made by using BMF and 5 minute epoxy. i used a PE "H" emblem as the template. I did the same thing for the RX7 emblem. doing so allowed for easier polishing of the RX7 rear. I added PE door lock cylinders to the NSX and put a stretched spru antenna as well. H emblems on the rims were taken from the spare decal bag i've started. Overall, both kits were fun to make. the hood of the RX7 had a nasty habit of popping out due to the windshield wiper being in the way but other than that, neither kit posed any major problems. let me know what you all think

Your work is very hi quality, I like the engine detail on the RX-7 and the lights on the NSX are cool, do they come poped up or was that a mod by you ?

The lights come as a separate part so that they can be put up or down. its pretty cool.
