Starting a Halo 2 Body
I am starting this body for practice and since i have a ton of video game mags, it was easy to find enough pictures of Halo 2.
I do have a few questions before i post some pictures. What paper is ok to glue after being printed with? Regular printing paper just soaks up the paint but i havent tried photo paper yet. Aslo i have choosen a simple color scheme (Orange-Green-Black-Green) in my head but since i dont have my main hood logo i cant choose the design to tape off.
any tips for a beter color scheme and design would be great.

This has some great potential for being an awesome theme body. Keep us updated on your progress.
As for suggestions I'd put the Halo logo on the hood or sides. Maybe the Xbox logo as a secondary element. Afterall it's a Halo theme body. Not an Xbox theme body. Try this website for logos. If you have Illustrator or a vinyl cutter you can cut your own mask. If you don't have a vinyl cutter check out issue 110 of Xtreme RC cars magazine. In that issues Custom Works I wrote an article about how to cut your own vinyl stickers (or mask) without a vinyl cutter. Also check out our website for the theme body custom works. There are a few tips there that might help. Or just give you ideas.

I have to bring a camera to work to get some pictures. But if you go to hobby people in orange you can see it.

Send us some photos at the magazine. Maybe it might make it into Racers Rides.

Sweet. You should have the Halo 2 logog on the front. Then on the sides have master chiefs or a bungie logo. Heh it would be awesome if you could make it look like a warthog.
I love this idea.
