Default Simple paint job pics

Post up some simple paint jobs. Never been a fan of complex designs, like the simple and clean looking buggies, single coulours or a simple fade design etc. Post up any pics you have to try give me some ideas of a good paint scheme.

Cheers

Here is a thread I started if you are interested in seeing some single color on road cars. I just bought a tamiya m04m with the miata body and a hpi 240z body that I am anxious to paint. I will post pics soon.

Nothing of my own worth mentioning, but I really like Oople's DEX410R body:

this was pretty simple. got a little bleed from the black I painted first, but it was my first time using blue tape to mask, and the first body I've painted in a decade.
