Well - after a very long break from painting anything, I finally got around to painting a shell for a racing Pal - Andy Rochelle. He gave me a touring car shell to 'experiment with' last year as i'd bought my Craft Robo cutter.

Couple of things, it didn't go too well, my old - different brand paints reacted with each other, the chrome went on, and fell off on it's own - and the blends went weird. Cutter worked well though !

Also, Mr Rochelle cut the shell out and put various holes in it himself - blindfolded and in the dark

Anyhow - I need to get a set of DECENT paints, chromes etc - where's best ?

Oh - the shell, some things worked well - some went horribly wrong - and I rushed it as usual !.

No liquid mask was used at all, either paper stencils or vinyl stencils cut on the plotter.
