FIRST CLEAR BODY
well guys, for my first ever clear body, i didnt do a bad job IMO, i did the proline hummvee urban body for my vxl pede. i used tamiya metallic green spray paint and these cool skulls external graphics i found on towerhobbies, and luckily the paint job matches my wheels nicely

RE: FIRST CLEAR BODY
That body makes the Pede look like an offroading beast. Not a light fast truck. The paint job is really good, I love that metallic look.
Just wait 'till you flip it and it slids on the top for like 20 ft lol.

Good choice of color. I like the single-color blast too. I used to put my heart and soul into painting just to see it become a mangled mess. Only single colors and decals now. Works for me.

Good job on choosing Tamiya paint!! They will stick to the shell really well!
I think we used the same color?!
