Speaking of neon green & purple, I just finished this 68 Camaro for a local VTA racer. These are his colors. Not period correct for that class, but he is a club racer and wanted to stay true to his team colors.

Default My paint

Sorry for this being my first post but I lurk search and read more than I post here. Lot's of good info!! Here are some pics of my current stable sitting on top of my 1:1 "Shortcourse" truck.

The 22T and the 22 SCT 1.0 are done with rattle can (Tamaya) and masking tape (and a LOT of time!). The 22T is actually the second paint job on that body. I cleaned all of the Model Master paint off of it and redid it with Tamaya. The brake fluid trick really works! The 22 SCT 2.0 is my first attempt at air brush and is done with Wicked Colors and masking tape.

The 1.0 is pics 2-4 and the 2.0 is pic 5.

Default More Pics

Some more pictures of my Losi's. All of these bodies have 1/2 a dozen race days on them and the 1.0 is the truck that my wife is learning to drive so the bodies are taking some abuse.

The last 3 pics are of a never mounted Pro-Line body I did using the wrong paint (Model Master) so it is more of a concourse body than anything else since the paint is brittle and flakes.

It's great news for the Houston racers that you're back painting again, Jimmy.... and back racing with us!

Nice work as always, buddy
