Need some Ideas!!
I just got my Silvia GT body(I love these cars) And I've hit a bit of a snag.For some reason I can't think and can't seem to find a Paint scheme I'd like to do 
.I was gonna put a carbon fiber hood on it but the Body has baffles in the hood and it would be difficult to do but I think i'll still do it anyway.What I really need is some ideas for color combo's and designs.

Nismo yellow
Charcoal/Mineral Gray(you know like the new mustang gray color)

This is how it turned out 
.I'm not very happy with it because the Bright RED came out pink,I ran out of black to do the hood and the hobby shop was closed,and the PINK showed threw the white in the front.All in All I think it's came out ok but it's not what I wanted.

wait......... did you let it dry before you added the second one
first of all dark colors first most likely. its how I did it
for combo design I'llgo for red and silver,blue and white, rember dark color first causer lets put it this way
when you put your red first the the white part is more likely to be masked then let dry............................................... .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .....................Ok lets say it dried out then take the mask to put the white part then one the white paint hits the red part its no longer being noticed as pink or some color mixture cause red is dark. it can't be seen
its how I did it and it work .............well......many people had different ways they might do the opposite and do well as well
