"Show us your paint work"

[Trip]

What can you do with an airbrush? What have you done in your past? Large scale, 1/10, 1/8, whatever... If you bought your paintwork (purchased a body pre-painted) post a link! If possible, tell us how you painted it...


The Savage (and all my trucks) was/were painted with Testor's Pactra Finish, all of the flames were done with a French Scroll and flame masking. And Allbright "Chrome" (spray can)

The T-Maxx was straight, Light blue backed with white pactra "backing"

The FG M/T was painted with Candy Red backed with Indy silver and Pactra window tint... (It appears Orange because I didn't wait long enough for the other colors to dry) and because the colors in the digital camera didn't turn out correctly. In the sun, it is Bright Red!

Trip..

If you plan to use Spray can window tint, make sure all paint has dried for at least 24 hours!!! The reason is, all of the Lacquer in the window tint will soften the previous paint layers and cause them to bleed!!! Not Good!!

I have a bunch, but I can't post small pictures and I did not want to clutter up your thread.

 

[Trip]

Clutter it! That's what it's here for! lol

I have gotten lazy lately in painting. I have been using body tattoos (human type) on the inside and backing with white. Makes for a simple fast paint job with color...

I did something similar with a school bus body for my old savage. I took goofy pictures of all my r/c buddies and mounted the pics on bobble springs and glued them to the inside of the body. Every time I would hit the gas or a bump everybody would bounce all over the place.

It was amusing at the monthly "Bashfest". Then people started stealing my ideas... So I went large scale and told them to try to keep up!!

Well it's not a large scale body, but here's an example of my work in 1/8...Details of the rocky parts (dark) don't really come out on the pics, but that's the best I can do...I suck at taking pictures
