Progress: VipCar/Racer Cima

1st: Paint

I primered it and cut the hood out, Testors Bright Blue, I layed down some Cheese Cloth over the body and sparyed Sapphire Blue Metal Flake over it.

Then I sparyed a Candy Apple Red over the whole car. You can see the flakes and the patterns from the cloth in the sun under the candy. The paint process isnt finished yet, I still have to spary more candy over the body and other parts.

More progress coming soon! :grinyes:

very very intresting. i like the color choice, i have a 1:1 porsche that USED to be close to a color like that. its hard to see the affects of the cheese cloth, or atleast for me, but the J2Z, wit the paint will be a sik combo, muy bueno :)

Yea you cant see the affects of the chesse cloth, the picture seemed to mess up when I uploaded it on AF.

Good to see a VIP car being built!:sunglasse

Interesting method of painting the body. Can't wait to see it finished.

That engine is awsome looking with that car. Goodjob
