Re: Amemiya RX7
Hi guys, thks for looking at my work in progress & all your supports.
Reli fall in lov with this car after viewing hot version video in which the amemiya RX7 competed against 'Luck' rally tuned WRX in a touge battle. Used to be a skyline fan. But after viewing, this RX7 reli blow off my mind! Hopefully can do my best to make this model to be half as good as HIROBOY & all the other expert. I would reli appreciated if all of you would give your precious comments on how I could improved on it. Thks. Sorry abt the long story. Anyway, here are some progress pics.  Have primed the body & done up the headlights. Realise that the surface, especially at area which are puttied and sanded are not as smooth as expected. Area are filled with pit holes. How am I going to make it as smooth as the rest of the body? being using tamiya basic putty as the top coat.  Another pic  Here is the modified hoods. Just added a inlet vent using 0.3mm sheet.  Here is the car interior. Will changed the back compartment. I will try my best to post update every week. Will be a slow progress.

more progress
hi everyone, return with some more progress.
 have sand the headlight section & redone the air inlet area(should look more proportional now) hood section is almost done up, less for a bit of sanding touch-up.  have redone the end section of the side body kit. Rims & brake are from toyota corolla WRC. Wanted to get the RP-F1 rims, but have heard that the rims look like 16 inch instead of the 17 inch.    This is the pic i based my model on. What color is body color. Which tamiya color comes closest to the body color? TS-10 French Blue; TS-23 Light Blue; TS-54 Light Metallic Blue?

Re: Amemiya RX7
Nice work. The putty work is coming a long well, so far. I'd go with light blue, I think French blue is a little too rich for that car.
