HOW THE HELL DO YOU START TO MAKE A SHELL I BADLY WANT TO START MAKING THEM!! :D do you just get a clear one and go from there with your cars dimensions?

sorry noob lol...

spenner 28-01-2010 09:52 PM

Not sure i am 100% what you mean ???

Most of the shells you will see on here are clear lexan shells designed for various cars. And then sprayed.

To make the shells you will be looking at various ways and you are probably best speaking to Doughty, or Jonathan Clarke (Atomic Carbon)... There is also Phat Bodies who could give you advice!!

Yeah and here goes

GREEN :)!

Manolis owns Showtime!

I still cannot believe that Kifo uses water based paint. I am still old school and use cellulose thinners in my airbrush.Not that it gets any use :lol:

I will have to let Kifo do my Losi 8E shell before it goes green. Need something electric (pun intended!)

Kifogrande 28-01-2010 10:58 PM
