Jon, i've just been looking through this thread & i'm amazed at the sheer quality & complexity of your spray work... I like to think i'm ok at spraying R/C car shells but some of the stuff you are doing is blowing my mind... I just can't figure out how some of it is done or how you come up with them!

I've seen some shells that have been painted professionally... which are good but with a critical eye there's paint bleed & non-crisp lines - there's none of that with your designs... of which you certainly have a distinctive style!

Couple of Qs - do you use spray mask or do you generally use self-adhesive masks that you pre-cut before they are stuck on the shell... if you use liquid mask you must have a very steady hand! Also I see that the paints that you sell are solvant based - does that mean I can clean my airbrush/thin paint with cellulose? I've tried using waterbased paints in the past but with little success
