Looks great. Leave it wingless!!

This reminds me more and more that I need to buy an airbrush - I just can't get anything looking smooth when brushing (ie: interior)

Thanks, yes I did panel line, if you look at the 2nd photo you can see it on the fuel cap, and the last photo on the doors.

Hiroboy, you honestly should send some of your masterworks over to the GSL one of these years and clean house on the import table.

Loving the R32, by the way. It looks so vibrant and different in purple.

Very :cool: and very distinctive.

I love the combo of purple and beige. If you had said you were going to do it in those colours I probably would have thought 'yeuch', but having seen the pictures the colours really do go together very well.

The Matt Varnish is made by Citadel Colour Paints it is sold thou' the Games Workshop but not listed on their website.
I found a website selling it here : http://griffongames.safeshopper.com/77/cat77.htm?872 (http://griffongames.safeshopper.com/77/cat77.htm?872)

Shorty4859 :
The program is Adobe Photoshop 7.0 (http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/main.html) it is a proffesional photo editing program. The logos are in eps and ai format which were createdin Adobe Illustrator. These are high level programs and not for the faint hearted.

Great work on the eng bay..
I must admit if you would have explained the colours online I would have been sceptical..
But God it looks good.
Could it be the ultimate pimp cruiser?

p.s. Good old games workshop paints.. I still use them too, great for fine detail matt work.. :biggrin:
