Looks pretty good, but there's one thing missing.... the panel lines


Cheers

Talking

i like, i like...

Purple is a nice color for the mini... I think i've actually seen a purple one on the street, but a really dark metallic purple, not like this lavender color ...

And as for panel lines, yeah, try a wash of dark purple... don't make'em black or else it'll look like an RC car (i.e. it won't be realistic anymore)

P.s. did u coat the entire car with future floor wax? the clear parts as well?

It isn't horrible

It looks great with purple, maybe a few white strips on the bonnet?

I didn't want to make the panel Line.. I love it like that....

Future floor wax ? what it is ? No wax was used.. it's not even polished.. nothing... only pain and clear coat.....
