Almost finished xxx nt - MX_KEVIN - 08-24-2005 I finished building the truck and breaking in the motor. I got a little more to do on the body, but i thought Id show some pictures to see what u guys think of my first air brush paint job. I had to copy the box on this one for the idea, but it has my own twist. So??Whacha Think?? Be Easy Almost finished xxx nt - Mr. Tune - 08-24-2005 I'd say for your first time....pretty damn good! Almost finished xxx nt - RCDad - 08-24-2005 Wow that is nice! Almost finished xxx nt - bigjs - 08-24-2005 looks good to me Almost finished xxx nt - DAVEC-NITRO-RS4 - 08-24-2005 I would say it looks very good. Nothing wrong with getting good ideas from other works of art. If I could I would copy Bodz or Franksbodies, but I am just going to start simple. Did you use liquid mask? I think I see the bottle in the background? What type of airbrush do you use? I'm ready to buyone. Almost finished xxx nt - snakebite46 - 08-24-2005 Nice work Kevin Almost finished xxx nt - Tex - 08-24-2005 Looks great Kevin! :drool: Almost finished xxx nt - MX_KEVIN - 08-24-2005 Thanks guys for the nice words. I need a fast looking paint job to help make up for my slow driving. :o Davec- Yep thats a big bottle of mask. I brush that on 3 coats, draw it out with a sharpie, cut with #2 exacto. I still have the mask on the windows till i put another coat of blue, then lots of sealer to help stop the paint from scratching off. Heres a link to the setup i got http://www.airbrush-depot.com/scripts/depot.exe?pgm=400420t.bbx Thanks again for the compliments Kevin Almost finished xxx nt - DAVEC-NITRO-RS4 - 08-25-2005 If you read XtremeRC Cars magazine check out the October issue (with orange HPI car on cover) page 159, top picture, truck #6 !!! But your's looks better! That looks like a great airbrush combo. I wish I could budget that now and never have to upgrade, but I'll prolly get a simple (cheaper) one to start. Almost finished xxx nt - MX_KEVIN - 08-27-2005 All done. Here it s in all its glory. 13 Hours before i trash it with my first race with it. Almost finished xxx nt - Tex - 08-27-2005 Damn..... I can only imagine how good you bodies will get after a little practice. That body is killer dude Almost finished xxx nt - MX_KEVIN - 08-27-2005 Thanks...Remenber the savage I did? It was red and black crowd pleaser. Had it at Leisure Hours 1 time. This one is a big improvement. Just took my time amd chilled. Almost finished xxx nt - Tex - 08-28-2005 bodies are all about patience! Almost finished xxx nt - snakebite46 - 08-28-2005 Body came out awesome Kevin
