Here are a few pics of my first lexan paintjob.
Rattlecans and masking tape. Trying to track down all my airbrush stuff will see what I come up when I finally get it all together.
What d'ya think?

Wow that's really impressive. Any prior painting skills?
You think you know, but you have no idea.
Lots of models from years ago, Never tried the (inside out) process used on rc bodies though.

This is a very Impressive paint job!

Very nice! I would have never guessed it was your 1st attempt at painting an rc body!
Looks real good! Nice looking truck as well!
Thanks guys, The positive feedback definitely makes me wanna delve deeper into the paint world..lol
Since I painted this 1 I`ve gotten my hands on some of that matting for the C/F and have located most of my airbrush stuff 'cept that missing hose ARGHHHHH!!!
Just got a pull start and the F.O.C. kit for this unit too.
C-Ya.

Sweet, you have much more patience then me. I did one body with rattle cans. Got done, threw it away and went out and got an Iwata Brush and 20G compressor. If your pulling off this with rattle cans I'd love to see what you could do with a Pro Set-up..
