Like it?

i like it looks really smooth and clean the colors are good matches

I like it...clean and simple with plenty of room for stickers without covering up your hard work! Was that masked with thin tape to edge the colors like that?

Thanks, I was going for that simple but cool and clean look...

Oh heck no that wasn't masked...That was an internal decal! lol....

Then you did a good job of sticking it on there!!!

Thanks! Yeah, I think they look real good.

Looks good. What do you use to cut the different things out on the body and even the body. I used lexan scissors for the first time today (2nd body I painted) and it helped a lot. I didn't have them for the first body. I was able to cut all the way around the whole body nicely, but I always make crappy cuts cutting out cooling holes and a hole for my gas tank.

I use the Dubro Body Scissors and Body reamer kit. Seperate, they cost about $30, but together in this kit they were $12. I use the body reamer to make clean body holes, and just gouge out a hole where I want the engine, and then carefully cut from the hole, the rest of it out with the body scissors.

I got the Dubro kit also. I never thought of making the hole as big as the reamer will go.

I just do that so the scissors will fit in there better...

If you make good sharp score line with an xacto knife, the lexan will just simply tear/peel along the line. It's hard to believe until you see it. But it's the easy way, especially on round holes. They turn out nice. Try it on some scrap plastic, like the stuff electronic toys come in.

I use a dremel and its just the easiest way to do it in my opinion, you can get everything smooth and perfect lines

I thought you masked that off too.....looks fast

Mike, which tool do use in the dremel to cut?

I used to use the Dremel but it gets too messy...I use an X-Acto knife to score it and it tears clean and even. Perfect for the curves.
