Sorry guys, I'm far from artistic and being creative. But I'm trying not to do a copy cat paint job on my new Losi body. I did an extremely rough sample in Microsoft paint (hey it's all I have here at work) to give you an idea of what I was thinking.

Basically I DON'T want flames or skulls or an energy drink on it but I DO want the main color to be white and maybe work in some black and grays yet avoid doing/having an urban camo paint job.

Anyways, here's my sample version. Just picture it with smooth lines and not the microsoft paint shaky hand version.

Comments? Suggestions? Is it looking to zebra'ish?

I saw a white-gray combo in a thread in the MRC section. It looked sharp, mostly white with a gray slash on the lower 1/4 of the body. Much like my NEXT paint job

Simple done well always looks better than complex done poorly.

Looks like a tennis shoe, maybe you could run with that design.

Maybe a little zebraish.

Here's another bad variation. I agree it does look at bit sneakerish, but after adding stickers and such and mounting it on the truck, I think it will look good.

If you do the egdes of the grey and black with a tear affect Tear as in rip
not cry. Then it won't matter if it turns out bad, it will still good.
