The supra body is a two tone paint of white and orange however within the orange is an orange metal flake hard to see i know but trust me it is there and in the sun looks amazing.

Oh and pls give honest opinions i need guidance to get better.

Thanks all advice greatly appreciated.

I like the color scheme. Looks like the mask wasn't perfect, and you got orange overspray on the white, but for a first body I would say you did just fine. Cool! Did a good job trimming it. Reminds me of those orange cream Ice Cream bars.

Better than my firs too.

Good job man!

As for the over spray, just make sure you rub every part of your tape job with your finger nail or equivalent and also tape the body within hours of painting it so you have a good seal on the lines.

My best advice:).

Very nice for your first job. Was the paint from a can or air brush? I like the KISS paint jobs (Keep It Simple Stupid) some times less is more.
Im on my 3rd one and keep tryn new things each time. Practice makes the diffrence. Nice job again on your first job.
