c-west rx-7 paint?

[flyonthewall]

Forget the ITR comp we should have a C-West RX-7 one

I've not made a final decision on the colour of mine, i was thinking red as below, but i might have to pick something else now!

Mine shal be a custom shade of purple I mixed up Don't worry! I'll make you guys proud! I like the C-West Comp idea, anybody else?!

[Suislide]

the idea of a comp sounds good to me, although i'd probably lose...but that's half the fun. lol.

chris - that exact car was at an import car show in Toronto last year that i attended. he's done a beautiful job on it. some guy in California owns it. i was thinking for a while of making a replica of it, using the Z1's from my Chaser kit, but that never came to be.

I think the 'real' car is really light silver, not sure what paint I'd use for it though.

Gotta take the blame for that one, joeclaw.

The base color is a mix of Tamia colors - orange, yellow and red mixed quite bright, more redish-orange than yellow-orange if you know what I mean.

The first four clear coats are Tamiya clear with the addition of Wave yellow/white pearl, and some Pearl-Ex powders (Interference Gold, Shining Gold, and Macro-pearl).

Those photos are before I put on the final 'pure' clear and polishing. Should have some new pics later this week with the paint work all sorted (I hope).
