RE Amemiya "Final 7" Progress

good luck in your finals...in the mean the why dont you send your RX-7 to me for inspection<-----Just kidding :icon16:

well Amemiya's kits were all flow designed. amazing what that guy can do with clay. as for the fenders no worries do0de the fenders look cool although they aren't amemiya FD style flares they still look dope.


keep it up and good luck with finals.

great project, keep us posted.

well finals are done so back to work on the car....finally got the amemiya AW-7 wheels... a little upset that fujimi didn't include the amemiya decal that goes on the rim spoke.... (but IT IS fujimi that we're talking about)
anyways i tried to replicate the project mu brake assembly... had to use brakes off a tamiya astra touring car, drilled out the center so they could fit on the fujimi rim.... :screwy: .....hopefully it comes out ok.

The rims and brakes look pretty damn nice.

its been a long time but here is the update..i painted the body pure white as a base coat for the orange took care of some other stuff too... also i had some small bubbles form while painting and a dent in the front from a mistake made earlier good thing it's the weekend and i have some time.

do you need a disciple ? ? ? :icon16:

VERY NICE !anyway applying CF onto the bonnet ?

Great progress on the car.

I couldn't help but notice that your pictures are uploaded on the UH server, so I'm guessing you live in Hawaii? If so, which island?

|Awesome stuff man, keep that progress coming!

sick car man!!! Keep it up!! ;)

The fenders on the real car are flat but wide, that how they are different from others cause others have mostly the rolled out effect

wow , it looks perfect @@
I can't wait for your Final 7 complete...

Shes a real beaut, get that orange peel worked out, and even better.

Sweet!! I just bought the Option2 magazine with the Final 7 in it!!:sunglasse

OMG that thing is sweet!! more pics!

Great, I have been waiting for this thread to be back up. You have a great RX-7, I'm surprised that you didn't use the RE-Amemiya rear but this looks better!

I can't believe it! I looked through both these threads only yesterday!
Your work is really inspiring! Excellent jobs!

I have somehow continually missed this thread - and to my surprise I was mentioned in the initial post - weird! But why would I give you greif? This is a fantastic model. Absolutely brilliant work. I must have missed it, did you have to use a Porsche front end or what? Fantastic modelling!

Great work, even if I think it looks funny.... It's just great!

That looks real good!!

willmo- back when i started this thread someone posted up some re-amemiya stuff in the general thread...and i think you mentioned something about re-amemiya cars being "over done"...oh well that was way back

yeah i had to use the porshce front :(
some people said it looked funky but i wanted this 7 model to be different
hopefully i'll finish it when i comeback from japan next month

Awsome work, love the FC also!

That is the sweetest RX7 I have seen in a long time! :sunglasse

That is very well done mate.
