Very cool!!!!!!! Nice job

Theres nothing wrong with that. A straight color is very respectable for a first shell.

This is how it ended up, still need to add numbers but havent got them yet.

Not my best work.

and I need to either buy a cheaper camera or learn how to use the one i have. It took me 5 minutes to get these pics.

Shooting r/c's well can be quite difficult, even when they are still. I use my wife's DSLR and turn the aperture all the way down. I get about as close as I can and focus manually.
