|  Two tone paintjob.
Painted the scorpion, used what I had laying around. I think it turned out pretty good. I want to paint the wheels, just haven't got around to it yet.   What do you think? |

You did that with just what you had laying around? Wonder what it would look like if you acctually prepared especially for it.

On the tires I cut all the SMALL blocks out and left the big ones. There are pics of it elsewhere in this forum, just not sure where. If I had time to prepare, I wanted to camo it, winter camo. Not a zebra stripe, but more true winter camo. I would need to borrow the neighbors airbrush, buy paint, do a real mask job with blue painters tape. Start with a white background, then add browns, greens and blacks. Maybe next time. Thanks for the compliments. |

I was eyeing that job! How did you go about masking it? I had a few ideas about making some templates, but don't want any patterns apparent. Man, I don't want to paint it again...... |

I would either airbrush it on or use brushable modeling paint.

i agree/spraying into lid then brushing it on really sucked//took way too many coats & was way to thin!! i'm gonna pick up some model paint to start detailing soon! |
