A few pics of my s2k

I felt like painting this one red/white/blue because of the recent issues. What do you guys think of the scheme so far? Too bad I'm going to have to strip it and repaint it because I should have used white primer instead of gray :(

I'm also thinking of changing the scheme a little bit the next time around

I also added a little bit of front lip with putty

I thought this picture came out interesting. The paint is red, not orange, but the orange came out because of an accidental flash from my camera:

thats bad as man

i love it

Why?? How about keeping this? It seems nice to me :)

I say keep it and try and finish it :) :)

i painted the hood and trunk white for the stars, and left the sides with gray primer. so on the sides, the red doesn't show as bright. it's quite a bit duller and darker. the pictures don't show it that well, i guess.

i'm thinking of redoing it and painting most of the trunk and hood blue with white stars, while most of the rest of the car will be red...since the American flag has the white stars on the blue...

The whole stars thing doesnt work for me but its your creation. And in that view this is a nice s2000 i want to build one but aint got the cash. But anyway good work if i were you i would repaint it and finish it and keep us posted!

Looks nice, maybe if you could make a fading effect from the red to white it would look nicer IMO (e.g. red to pink then to white)

Looks nice. :)

It's certainly different :D Don't give up on it, it's looking good.

Paint job looks real nice. It will be a shame to have to strip it :(

BTW, the seats don't look right in gloss, do you have any dull coat to try and tone down the gloss?

looks good as is (don't strip it) I'd add more stars though

i like this ideal it cool it like hollywood super star S2000 keep up the good work don't worry the picture look awesome :)

Paint the white back end blue, and say it's the Tamiya S2000. ;)

Haha...I hadn't thought of that. Although I did think about entering this into Tamiya Con. I won't make it in time though. Plus, I didn't paint the undercarriage. :bloated:

Hey not bad, patriotic S2K.

I say you should do a patriotic Hemi!
I say Patriotic Cuda? Maybe I'll try it.
