Smile In-progress...Amemiya RX8, Ferrari 512TR, and an old sleeper Chevelle wagon...

Fujimi Amemiya Mu RX-8, paint's Tamiya pearl white w/some extra pearl added to the first coat of clear. Still needs another heavy clearcoat, and more work on the lip spoiler that's ganked from an RX7...I didn't like the GT wing in the kit, and didn't have an extra Mazdaspeed wing that would look great on it. Think it'll get some Aoshima 19's...CE 28's prolly .


Rosso Ferrari 512 TR. OOB, it's painted and polished out Cobra Colors Ferrari Grigio Alloy. Nice color for this car.


This is a '65 Chevelle wagon. The original donor kit is a standard AMT 4 door kit, this is a resin conversion 2-door body by Jimmy Flintstone...it was only ten bucks. The donor kit only cost me three bucks . Uses the stock wire-axle wheelbacks, I'm using some deep trim rings and some resin '69 COPO camaro poverty caps for the widened-rim and offset look that sleepers have. I'll keep it a simple curbside. Haven't decided between bright red, or gold, or light "willow green" for paint colors. I think this is the perfect look/stance for this car...it was going to be a full-bore pro-tourer, but this looks better to me.
