Since there is no custom paint forum on RCuni. I'd like to start a thread right here (since I do the heli thing) for piktars of your custom paint jobs. I know some of you have done some original work and would like to share it so here's the place to do it.
Show us your stuff!
This is my MFA Sport. I didn't feel like spending bunches of time on the paint since it's my first heli and I'd be modifying it several times by smashing it into the ground. I didn't even crack the airbrush cases. Just some tape and spray bombs. Quick, easy, cheap with decent results. The picture resizing makes the lines look jagged but they are in fact very smooth and flowing.

I have in fact. Thing is; "mumbo jumbo, blah, blah, a pic, blah, blah, mumbo jumbo, more blah, blah, another pic and and a "how to". How about just some pics with breif explinations of this or that? It would take a day and then some to go through every thread just find cool pics people have posted. Is this a bandwidth issue?

Not really a bandwidth issue, it's just that there is a specific forum for custom painting. I agree you will have to tread through some mud to see pics, or you could check out the heli gallery for 31 pages of pics...http://www.rcuniverse.com/gallery/sh...at=503&thumb=1

Man, this site gets bigger and bigger every time I visit. I really didn't know that was there and you're the first to point me to it even after I had inquired about such in the past. Thanks man.
You can delete this thread if you like. I now know where to post pics.
Again, thanks.
