You might as well build models.

I painted two more recently, These were both painted in colder temperatures using the finger dip method. The colder temperatures made the paint really stringy changed the look a little, but only subtly.

I like the last paint scheme I did with the Tamiya 2004 Impreza so I did a couple more that way.


Tamiya DF01 Porsche Cayenne








Tamiya TB01 2004 Subaru Impreza WRC.






All three together.

Nice work!

How do you get like the lines in it? I've done a little splatter but I don't know how you get those lines unless you mask that....

[Hittman]

The yellow splatter looks amazing. Great work as always

[brianw]

Ty, how do you do the fade from white to black? Some look like it splatters into the next color while others look like they've been taped...I'm getting ready to paint a Dingo and think this would be fun.

fade/splatter into next color


harder line - tape?

They are all a tape line I mask off the areas that are going to be pure black and start splatter painting right at the tape lines, I try to get rid of the hard lines so it looks like it fads into solid. After I do the black splatter I spray the white. Then pull the masking tape and spray the black.

Hope that makes sense.

Perfect! Now I just need to decide on colors and pick up some paint!

[TURTLE]

A couple more bodies I did recently.

1/8th scale Kyosho Lancia Stratos.
Just a light splatter to the front.





1/10th scale HPI 2004 Subaru Impreza WRC.

[Colby]

You need to become a vendor dude. Youd make some serious bank off of painting these. Thank god Im your friend!

[fernando]

I love your style of paint work. Good job buddy!

[msd44]

Awesome looking bodies! What paint(s) are you using to do the "splattered" look?

[TURTLE]

Thanks guys.

For paint I use just about anything for Lexan bodies.

I have used fascolor in the past, but most the time I use bottled Pactra paints for the splatter and rattle can Pactra for the rest. I air brush sometimes too, but only when I want some bizarre custom color.

Very nice jobs, have you done any on scale crawler bodies? I'm picking up a new lexan body this weekend and I would like to try a splatter job, Just trying to figure out colors and style. After seeing your cars I've really started to like the white with black/blue splatter, but I like the look of a scale muddy truck, so maybe white/black truck with permanent mud marks... yeah!
