Hey guys, post your pics of your new paint jobs (or old, doesn't matter)!
Here's mine that I just finished today. I traced the graphics on the inside of the body; I got the graphics from www.RCxotic.com
B.T.W., the body is for an MBX5 but it's on an MBX4 XR[&:] since Proline stopped making the MBX4 crowd Pleazer body

i wanted to do a yellow/white/blue shell for my MP777 but when i actually came to paint it i had no yellow & no masking tape[:'(]
so i had to go for a white/blue fade instead not too bad but not as good as i'd've liked[]
have to do a better one next time

How do you post pictures like Aerobirdbrain and Adamshowtime? thanks.
1st the picture needs to be hosted on a web site that allows remote hosting
then right click on the picture and copy the URL or address
like this http://www.district37ama.org/dualspo...mine/h7pro.jpg
then come here and click the "Image" button you'll get this [img][\image]
paste the URL between the brackets and you're golden

FYI,
adamshowtime's pic is hosted remotely
but Aerobirdbrain's is host here on RCU
click reply, the "upload images"
then you can upload right from your computer

Yahoo photos doesn't allow remote access to photos

Here's some of my faves. The first is a shell I did for my current production class MT. The second is an example of the fine work from Ziegers graphics. The third is a shell that was supposed to be yellow but didn't turn out as planned. It went on a KII I built this year when I thought i'd try to get back into buggy racing. Because of the awful color and graphics, plus the insane speed of this buggy, my fellow racers dubbed it the snotrocket.
