Okay, don't be hard one me, it's my first paint job - I know what I did wrong. But hey, I wanted to share these anyway:

Thanks for the complements. This I've learned:

- apply the masking tape hard! Don't allow any room between the masking tape and body.

- apply thin lines on the outer site. I applied too thick lines. The downside is that it isn't very accurate. And I missed parts where the tape wasn't applied correctly.

- when cutting the masking tape, don't press too hard, make fluent gestures, and try doing in one single cut.

- paint in thin multiple layers. I was trying to do it too quick, putting too thick layers at once.

And a couple of more things which I cannot remember right now. I guess practice makes better... I'll start a new one tomorrow.
 
Don't sweat it! It looks beautiful. Nice colors, and the white accents look great with the wheels.
 
Thanks, means a lot to new rcdad! It is silver by the way ;-).
Sorry man. Is it just a bright silver or a platinum silver?

Sometimes the pics don't do the colors justice.

Still a great combination with nice contrast.
