It was a lot of masking work. The Spaztix Chrome is an awesome paint! | ||

The paint was all rattle cans. Tamiya colors except for the Spazstix Chrome. Tamiya Copper, Inca Gold, and Black. Also a small bit of Tamiya Silver as backing for the chrome parts. I used black as a backing for the copper and gold because I did not want those colors too bright. I could not find paint colors to match this exactly, but I was kind of shooting for this: Last edited by Shape_Shifter; 10-28-2015 at 09:48 PM. | |

You can use tamiya ps31 smoke for tinting windows, Body looks awesome. If you dont plan on tomahawking magnets work really well and you dont have to poke any holes in the body Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk |

If you use smoke paint for the windows, make sure to mask EVERYTHING else on the body first, apply ten or more super-light coats, and use a small fan to help the smoke paint dry faster. The stuff is so thin, and so packed with solvent, that it will re-dissolve other coats of paint and mix itself in, and it will run like crazy if it's applied even slightly too heavily. Since tinting the windows is the last step of painting, it REALLY sucks if you screw it up. I screwed it up once, and then decided I'm fine with having clear windows.

This looks great! Wish I could find a full Ford body for my SCX10, best I can find is a Honcho style 250.
