Huge thank you to all for all the support and very kind words,really humbling to get such high marks from all of you! In all fairness for those that did'nt know I've been custom painting full scale for 20+ years so do'nt go thinking I'm all that ! I hate to say it but I could'nt leave it alone ! It was okay, but a bit garish for the 2tone metallic pearl lime green thats going on top . 3rd times the charm(I hope) so on went some Kosmic Brandywine candy by House of color thinned way down for the a/b of course! Michael wish I would've video taped it as well,then again after all the goofs maybe not lol. The real trick is multiple layers and knowing when to stop!

Third time the charm it is then !!! :) :)

It looks very much more 3D than the other two, im impressed !

Makes me want to get a couple of old bike tanks and do a few paint-overs :)

Very nice Trey. Awesome a/b skills. I also want to see a video of that so next time film it for us. Can't wait to see final product.
 
Brilliant, I can see knowing when to stop would take a lot of experience. This just gets better and better!! M

Thanks again everyone!I've gotten some build time in and finished up the interior,along with the exhaust and weathered the underside a tad.

Also applied the Green pearl,just have to shoot some clear over it next

Ooooooh ..... green over black.... thats tasty stuff Trey.

chassis looks about the right amount of dust and dirt for a show car thats been driven around a bit ...
