Chappy Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 I started Taco Trike #2, using Milk Trike and Taco Trike's decals. I painted the trike with DecoArt Metallic Festive Green at a 1 to 1 ratio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chappy Posted December 22, 2021 Author Share Posted December 22, 2021 While working on Taco Trike #2, I created a playlist: The Latin Side of WAR. As I work to complete the trike, I am jamming Low Rider, Ballero (Live Version), Cisco Kid, and Nappy Head (Theme from "Ghetto Man). My creative juices are flowing. I just finished kit bashing the rear. I will not have the lantern on the back, adding a small light and plate for a cleaner look. Merry Christmas to all!

Chappy Posted December 28, 2021 Author Share Posted December 28, 2021 (edited) 🤬 Since my airbrush is broken, I had to use Testors' Extreme Lacquer Lime Ice #1835. I'm diggin' the RESULTS! 🥴 Moreover, it's very close to DecoArt Metallic Festive Green! 😎 Edited December 28, 2021 by Chappy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bisc63 Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 That DecoArts color reminded me very much of the old Testors color "Lime Gold". That Lime Ice really has that 70s show car/bike metal-flake look, and its perfect for this build! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chappy Posted January 5, 2022 Author Share Posted January 5, 2022 (edited) The engine is painted in Deco's Festive Green and the body in Testors' #1835 Lime Ice Extreme Lacquer. Build on! Edited January 5, 2022 by Chappy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
