Here is a VTA for a local racer. He owns a lawn care business. I gotta get a better camera sometime and a setup for taking pics. As usual, everything is done using paint masks and the only stickers are the HPI supplied stock stickers.

If you mean hand cut buy a robotic hand...then yes! If you mean by me...heck no! I am not that skilled, or patient! I can cut a smooth straight line but curves always end up notchy. I design and cut all my own stickers and paint masks. The skin is a mask I made up along with the flames, headlights and grills.

I sell all of them too so anyone can paint like a pro! The headlights are all cut then I put a transfer tape layer on top. All you have to do is paint your designs, then peel off the next layer you want to paint. The headlights/grills I find best to save for last but I can cut out the masks anyway the customer wants. The skin is a stencil but as you can see, you can get pretty fancy with a stencil with a bit of imagination.

Both the clean and dirty mountain dew camaros are the coolest rc bodys I've seen. Top notch! Love it!
