I have been a building for sence i was 5 yrs old , and now i am 28 , so thats 23 yrs of modeling and i am just starting to turn out some good paint work , I like all your paint scheme , But i think the pink s 2000 needs more graphic , here is a pic of focus wrc i turned into a street car , thanks for sharing , Later David

WOW I LOVE THE FOCUS, THE GRAPHICS ARE GREAT, I WANNA EXPERIMENT WITH SOME OF THE PRINTER PAPER DECAL. BUT THE REST I DO WITH A AIRBRUSH.
THE S2000 HAD ABOUT 40HRS OF BODY WORK PUT IN, IT LOOKED GREAT, THEN MY GIRLFRIEND GOT ALL STRESSY AND SAID IF I DIDNT WANT IT SMASHED THEN IT WAS GONNA HAVE TO BE PAINTED PINK!!! SHE JAD SEEN THE 2 FAST 2 FURIOUS ONE. WELL BEFORE LONG SHE HAD STUCK ON LITTLE DIAMONDS TOO, I PUT SOME CARBON ON TO KEEP IT MORE STREET THO!! I WANNA DO SOME MOR MENTAL PAITJOBS, STILL TRYING TO GET HOLD OF SOME FLIP PAINT!! BUT FOR THE MIN I LOVE USING CLEAR REDS AND BLUES TO MAKE DEEP LOOKING PAINT! |

Hi Chris WELCOME TO AF!!
Quite close to you, but not very close. I live in Essex. Really respecting that R34, did you paint those Daytona stripes or are they decals? Also, loving your Lexus. I want one of those (1:1), but they are a bit out of my price range. Anyway, looking forward to sampling more of your work. |

nope, all the colours you see are paint, tamiya clear acrylic over tamia metalics, you can vary the thickness of the mix and layer it up, just remeber that the key to a neat job is time consuming masking.
dont make the mix too thin or it just runs off, use a light pressure but keep applying, make sure u have a wet look finish before u stop spraying, and leave for several hours before removing the tape after scoring with scalpel, as the clear colour is kinda rubbery for a few days!!!! i peeled it off once while removing the masking once
