i almost felt ashame building that model, because of the lack of details.

:feedback: but be gentle, its my second model =)

i forgot about the details :P CF hood, black paintjob, stock rims, sponsor decals, cf on the back of the seats, kickass interior ( :iceslolan ) other seats (the stock ones are just so ugly) and new steering wheel (its also ugly as hell)

From what i can see it looks like it turned out very well. Not one of my favourite cars, but yours looks pretty mean and aggressive. I always like black alloys too.

:iagree:
Got mine this morning (the Veilside one) and it looks very dissapointing, looks cheap & nasty & very few parts as you say. This kit has gone straight to the back of the cupboard & wont be seeing daylight for a long time !!!
Youve done a nice job on yours.

234kb are too big pictures. If I remember, 80kb is the limit per photo. You have to reduce that size. Hope you get them done.

body looks really good from the portion i can see

i'd like to see more pictures. from what i can see it looks great! hope to see more

ill try to convert the pics from jpeg to gif in photoshop now, stay tuned

Here are the pics :icon16:

ill take more pics if anyone wants me to.

some may have noticed that i didnt attach the exhaust pipes, well i didnt, cause they were so tiny and pathetic. and i dont have any silver paint :iceslolan

the body looks good but i see what you mean by the lack of detail, not your fault. good work.

looks fantastic

the body looks good but i see what you mean by the lack of detail, not your fault. good work.
i mean its like 10-20 parts to glue together and then its finished. not that i didnt detail it good. sure the body was ok but the rest of the kit is not good at all :disappoin in my opinion,fujimi did really bad work on this model.

yeah fujimi tends to do that, we had a whole thread discussing fujimi's shortcomings a while back

I'm quite dissappointed with Fujimi aswell. Their plastic is really waxy and doesn't seem at all like good quality. The parts are very sparse too. And then there was an engine with the car but the hood doesn't open. DOH!!
I have to think long and hard about buying another Fujimi kit.

Looks good, it's a shame the kit for that car is not much good because I really like RX8's. Next time you take pics of a model though, try to make sure the light source is in front of the car so you can see the detail!! (i.e. have your back to the sun)

I think you've done a great job with what you've had to work with.

Great build.

I have this kit but still at the primer stage at present and yes it could have been better, however it is better than the earlier issue which had the front bumper join smack in the middle rather than along the panel line so that was an improvement and so are the rear lights as they have extra detail. Take some picks in full daylight. :sunglasse

thanks for the comments, guys. im very glad to hear it came out good. ill try to take some pics with the sun in the back and emm.. thats all. wish me luck with my enzo :/

Good job! Nice cf work!!!!!!!

nice build, its great inspiration to buy one.

damn thats one sick car man
i love the rear lights!!

nice job
