one of the best bodys ive ever seen. i really like how you didnt try to fade anything. just kept the charecters the same as in the show. i must ask, did you just liquid mask the whole inside? please keep us informed about the south park body. if you have any other pics of bodys youve done, we would love to see them. truely and artist.

This has inspired me to 'maybe' try my hand at a Family Guy themed touring car. I would do it all with minimal masking and probably mostly brush work.

Just think if you were to have painted that on this body, could have been "Homer's Odyssey" 
I had to say it lol.
Very impressive work [sm=thumbup.gif]

lmao thanks guys! Yes I do paint for orders... This is just one of the 150 some that we (MR Paintin) have done. But its by far the most extravagant.... Everything was painted like a normal lexan shell would have been, from the inside with Bob Dively's LMF. Everything was hand cut and airbrushed. I will be cleaning up my Traxxas T-Maxx for some posing pics here soon since its finally nice here in Iowa.

I have never liked cartoon or superhero themed paint jobs and that blue color alone forget it. BUT YOURS IS A ONE OF A KIND TOP NOTCH PAINT JOB. I have seen tons of cool looking custom jobs but nothing of your caliper. I have painted a lot of bodies and your job just blows my mind. It makes my head hurt just thinking of the attention to detail you put into it. That is truly a showcase paint job. I agree with the others you should enter it in a best of show contest or at the very least send a photo to the RC mags like RC Action. I know you would get that in print. I have seen nice, cool & sweet paint jobs but yours is a jaw dropper....WOW! Great Job!!!
