View Full Version : A most unique RX-8 model kit...
SaikoMelon 07-29-2008, 06:02 AM Given to me by some of my friends for my birthday! The guy who put the kit together and painted it specializes in Gundam model kits, but I am very pleased with what he did for this.
One and only kit of my one and only car! (http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/2188/70444204if9.jpg)

PBlue 07-29-2008, 06:52 AM why the 2 color pattern?
kride 07-29-2008, 12:45 PM One of my old ideas, the scheme that is.
dozer 07-29-2008, 12:50 PM doesnt a forum member have one like that?....
TopGear8 07-29-2008, 01:08 PM Looks kind of weird...Would look better if it was just all white, or all orange :)
PBlue 07-29-2008, 01:22 PM It looks like it could be a race cars color scheme but it would be a lot more cohesive if it had more stickers/decals.
SaikoMelon 07-29-2008, 01:32 PM It's based off my ride guys. :)

NgoRX8 07-29-2008, 02:33 PM hmm. pretty weird paint scheme.
SayNoToPistons 07-29-2008, 05:59 PM Massive fail.
JRichter 07-29-2008, 06:17 PM Not bad. The actually car looks pretty good the more I see it and its pretty cool someone took the time to make a model to match your car. Different parts of the world are going to have different style and taste otherwise we would all be driving grey cars wearing grey suits.
PS a CreamsicleŽ sounds pretty good right now in this 95+ temp.
Alucard 07-29-2008, 06:22 PM mmmm CreamsicleŽ

I was reading each post and read dozers comment. scrolled down more and then your post saying its based off your car. I was like WHOA.

kersh4w 07-30-2008, 07:13 PM really awesome ride dude. nice.
altspace 07-31-2008, 11:05 AM I have the same model, but made some custom fabrication. I'd say it's a bit more "unique".

SaikoMelon 07-31-2008, 02:42 PM Thanks for the comments, everyone. :)
altspace, that's SICK! Incredible work there mate!
Bumble_Bee 07-31-2008, 02:48 PM And how can we get such "models"?? I would love one of my car... :D
Razz1 07-31-2008, 11:46 PM Nice!
altspace 08-01-2008, 08:39 AM no need to one up anyone altspace. stop being so insecure.
huh? You must not know me very well. Just sharing because not many people see RX-8 plastic models. A friend of mine from Japan brought mine over. They are made by FUJIMI.
Thx Saiko, I dig the work put in to yours so it matches your car.
Fortunate Few 08-01-2008, 04:02 PM looks awesome. what spoiler do you have?
SaikoMelon 08-02-2008, 03:07 AM looks awesome. what spoiler do you have?
Me?
To be honest I don't really know. It's a floppy fibreglass spoiler I picked off the shelf.
*runs from the horde of angry anti-rice members*
Fortunate Few 08-02-2008, 03:11 AM yeah i think you have the same one as this other dude i asked he got it in singapore. I like it though!
red_rabbit86 09-14-2011, 12:05 PM yeah i actually like he pait reminds me of the 787b, however the model paint didnt look that good but its my own .02 cents
rx 8speciale 09-14-2011, 12:34 PM holy thread revival !!
josh95mx 09-14-2011, 12:56 PM I like it! both the model and the ride. Unique! that's why I like it
altspace 09-15-2011, 07:30 AM holy thread revival !!
^this!
8upbad 09-17-2011, 05:46 PM I dig it.
8upbad 09-17-2011, 05:48 PM Not yours Altspace, a convertible 8? Gross.
MS Addict 09-17-2011, 06:06 PM Thread dates are irrelevant to our lives.
Such as when you go out on a date, and they say their age. It's just a number. Same principal here.
Anywho, props to making it match your car. If you ever put your car in a show, you should bring it along and have it with the car, haha.
