2nd Body Finished
It was originally going to be orange but after trying some different paints ended up with Createx transparent dark red, backed with Faschrome. Spaztix chrome for all chrome the all backed with Krylon flat black. Not the clearest pictures but it was cold outside took them quick.

Looks great. The Chevrolet El Camino body looks great along with the skulls. The red with the black go great together too. Good luck and have fun painting.

RE: 2nd Body Finished
Thank you! I have to go over this whole chassis yet. My next body is the HPI Dodge Charger.I'd like to do it like you did the True fire Cuda if I can fiquire it out. I am going to try Spaz Stix hard anodized orange, high lights with white, another layer of orange then flame pattern with white. I can't seem to get good looking flame paterns. Any hints?

RE: 2nd Body Finished
its hard ,it just takes practice,I like how the cuda came out also...one of my favs.
practice on clear plastic so you get the hang of it,also if you happen to use water base paints just use a piece of glass from a picture frame,paint it to see and when done it washes clean to be reused again.
search for airbrushing on www.youtube.com ...you WILL find anything you need.
Have fun.
