Default nice body!

Well I'm bored.
So I thought I'd put this post on here.
I am a 'shell painting nut'! and I do like to see what other people paint onto their shells. Having painted mainly 'boring cars' for the last few years its nice to be able to paint something without headlights for a change.
So here is mine for my new buggy, it would be nice to see what you lot have been up to with the old paint cans.
Tel

* oh and, ignore the website addy on the shell, it doesn't exist any more. sorry

Cool!
like the windows, unique!


What sort of paint do you prefer ? I confess I don't like painting shells too much, I learnt my skills on computers and not having an "undo" button is hard to get used to haha.

p.s. will move this thread to the painting forum

Russ Williams..... there must be loads of people out there looking for a new painter now.

My fave canvas has got to be 1/8th, it is just so much more fun, pleny of room to get in like a TC shell but far better shapes.

aah, good old russ.
Are they his new 12th design then?
I would imagine there are 'quite a few'!

jimmy, it depends really.
I prefer pactra etc. because they spray 'smoother', but they stink and aren't good for your health, and after painting them seriously for 13yrs thing weren't looking good. I recently switched to faskolor, they don't spray as fine or smooth, but then they don't stink the house out either! and are better for my gf's health as she has asthma!
I try to do things different to what others do but it gets more and more difficult thinking of new ideas.
