First real attempt.

I built this Castrol Supra about a two years ago. It turned out OK, it was my second attempt at using an airbrush. I still need a LOT of practice.

The acutal pics suck...I need a new digital camera.

(UPDATE: Got a new digicam. )

Thanks. You should see the first few pics I took. They were soooo damn blury I almost cried. I'm so pissed because I can't get the damn detail on the wheels to show up. I spent so much time on them. I painted them in a silver first then went with a top coat of white. When it dried I picked off the white paint where the wheel rivits are to show the silver through. Turned out great...not that you can see it in those crappy pics.
