Lexus LFA
 

Didn't want to show this until later, but a friend convinced me otherwise.
I hated the supra body I had lying around, and told myself to make an LFA.

I'm going to be ****ed off if Kyosho makes it LOL.

excuse my work area...:D

I'll have more pictures up later.. will this project be finished? I would hope so, this is pretty fun to create. As an extra point for glory,
I never used any measurements for this (yet). This is all freehand sculpting. :P
any straight lines that you might see are just by a card.

C&C welcome. :)

Here we go again, another crazy project~! :o

sounds tight can't wait to see the project. you should throw in some carbon fiber just like the real one

I'm going to be watching this one! I've been watching the development of this since its been a concept. I can't wait to see how your car turns out.

This looks like its going to be a great project. I will definetly be keeping my eyes on this one. Good luck.

another spam of photos!

This is going better than expected.

This makes me wonder if I can make my Supra beater into a 3000GT to match my DD.

Lexus LFA.. can't wait to see more progress.

thanks guys!
@songha, it might be possible, but your best bet is to start with an rx7 FD body. :)

Seems like a sweet idea, the LFA I mean.
As far as the 3000GT goes, FD body I think would fit better but the Supra front end matches the 3000GT front shape a bit better imo. So I would say go with an FD body and fit a supra front end and then just sorta work from there.

working on the back!

Great job, looks like its coming alone nice. You have a lot of work ahead of you but it will be well worth it.at the end. Thanks for sharing

I like the project.. I was a bit worried as it started out rough... But Texan said it right "better than expected" its looking good and cant wait to see the final outcome.. Ill be watching. What putty are you using and what brand model?

thanks again, guys!
@xxx, the putty ive used since i started modeling is Tamiya Epoxy Putty. I use the one in a blue box, but i believe the green box cures faster (the one I use cures in about 12 hours, but i give it 18-24 just to be sure). :)

wooow that is just crazy man i love it i will be watching it cant wait to see the outcome

looks sweet so far. cant wait to watch the progress.

Hey, looks interesting, hoping that the final outcome will blow me away!

yeah you could prob use the 350z or nsx headlights and modify them to look like the LFA's.

absolutly love it! nice work!

first one of these i have seen as a model...thought you could use it for inspiration...good luck with this :)
