My 2nd Air Brushed Shell!!!!

[RichieLong]

Thought i would share with you all my 2nd attempt at paitning a shell!!! I thought i would of learnt by now to keep things simple but alas i have not and payed the price for this in my opinion with the waving flag bursting out of my roof!!!. See for your self.















Please let me know what you think. My son thinks it good but i am not truely convinced. Cheers all Richie.

Although hard to tell i have panted the main colurs in translucent purple and red. Will look mint in sun/ bright lights.

Very nice, But don't worry about what other people say or think, if it is painted by yourself, for yourself, on your own car and you like it then it's good, i am also a novice airbrusher and it can be hard task learning the tricks, look through the painting sites to get an idea of what to do, if it ever comes back online telshels is a cracking place to start for ideas, you tube for educational vids, good work for attempt No/2

looking good mate , keep up the good work mate .... gonna stick my neck out here and guess that its the fading in the flames your not happy with between the orange and the yellow , under tray is the reason i said it ,,,, r u thinning the paint and what paint do you use buddy , thinner makes it lighter and fade example below dude

[RichieLong]

Yeh not the best flames blitz but it was the flag on the roof i was not completely happy with. Putting a black line in the white with black maybe should of used fastint or thinned the black down!. THe D4 body is not the best body to paint in my mind as it has limited contours on the body to follow. Have been looking on the gfx sit in america for good ideas.
