| Force-10 Fab's new C-10 crawler body.
Just got the new colors put down and tried some different stuff with the blending of the grafix. It looks more orange, but it started out using Yellow after I sprayed the inside with water and then swung it to make a water splash effect. After the Yellow, I used a cut Q-tip dipped in accetone to make some fire like designs in the paint. After the water dried it left the spots available for another color. Then came the candy red, Sprint white, Metalic Red, Silver, Teal Grean and outlaw black colors. This was a fun body to paint even tho I didn't mask off the tubing areas. (didn't want to take away from the colors.)

Looks good Rory. Can't go wrong with a C-10.

Thanks guys. I used to just tape and paint and it would take hours to get all the lines perfect (not that I'm complaining) but it's been fun trying new stuff and overlaping different colors to get the right effect or blend. maybe one of these days I'll step into an air brush, but for now, I like the way the can rattles when I shake it. |

| C-10 Chevy
C-10 bodies look the best! Yours is a good example of a good looking paint job on one. |

| Not just yet, I'm going to do a Bully build this fall (soon) and it'll be the new comp rig. The Grappler also needed more cutting on it to make the Rovers not get sipped by hitting the body so I wanted a spare ready to go for what ever MOA chassis I end up getting. And I just Love the Chevy look.:-P |
