Default Very first lexan paint job

So this is my fiirst stab at painting. it took forever for me to finish. It is basic but let me know what you think of it. And I know its not perfect i guess i was rushing it a little and missed a few spots where i needed to clean up the blue paint but not bad for a first timer.

I think that looks great for a first time paint job! My first one was one solid color.

Default You asked for it

thanx for all of the positive input. This body took a long time to paint do to the tedious little squares and my job. But the time paid off in the end. I finally had some time so i put some of the decals on and i think it looks even better. A true ROCKSTAR.







I still need to get some scratches on it but that is soon to come.
