Default Some bodies i painted at the Snowbirds...

I think i did about 34 bodies, 38 orders total...a record for me in 4 days. At the IIC i did 19. I will post a few more..unfortunately i did not get a chance to take pix of all the bodies...We had to crank them out so fast. Big thankyou to Lynn Munno of Munno Graphics for helping me with a few of the simpler ones so i could concentrait on the more custom ones.

I was just wondering did you use vinyl masks for those bodies?

Do you make your own masks, or use pre-made masks?

How do you know what bodies to bring to be ready for 38 orders? Or did Parma bring the truckload? Or did racers supply the bodies mostly.
