Progress, Mazda RX7
now while the progress of my enzo has been in a standstill for quite some time, i wanted to start something new (its on hold cause i need paint). At first it was supposed to be the drift super duper deluxe something drifter from aoshima but i screwed up a decal and i said to myself, "Realize that the decal wont straighten out" so i said f**k it and made it into a street car instead. so here is some progress i made, im customising the frontbumper a bit, thats all the customising, probably a drift style exhaust pipe, but that'd be later (the aoshima one looks cheap and nasty).
The front bumper before surgery  after surgery (the aoshima plastic was very fragile, this operation took me a fraction of 30 seconds.)  The body, hood and bumper. I needed to fill the center of the hood cause the holes look ugly and when i removed the hood, wich was a bad idea, but ill probably give it CF anyway nevermind. when i carved away the hood from the rest of the body, the space between the hood and the body got a bit too wide, so i puttied the sides. and the putty isnt snot  its "Green stuff" from Games Workshop and i must say it really works wonders. nuff babblin, heres the pic i havent figured what color, guidance would be very nice. im off to stockholm next monday with school, so ill "get lost"  and go to the hobbystore that sells tamiya paint.offtopic  just want to brag about my pc a bit

I don't know if I should tell you, because then I will feel like a copycat the day I use it myself
 Anyway, I saw the TS-56 brilliant orange the other day at Hobbybiten and it looked fantastic, maybe it's the one I'll use instead of all this nailpolish fiddling I've been up to? Nice project, your getting better by the day. It's fun to see that there is some rejuvenation in the hobby. I might as well tempt you to, get to Stockholm and join IPMS-Open! I think it will take place the first weekend In April!? But as soon as I know I'll let you guys know.Niclas

Re: Progress, Mazda RX7
Remember the 2F2F-supra? That's pretty much an orange street machine to me! Who ever said that one colour is for this or that car but not the one over there? Go with the colour you like, don't bother what other people says about it.
