  17. Hello........thank you all so very much for your kind comments.......I asked my friend Eric "TRUESCALE": a full blown custom car painter advice on the colors for this paint job..........I finished the body work and shot the H.O.K. white base coat.......then I shot the H.O.K. snow white pearl.......then I mixed a custom "Cotton Candy" color using H.O.K. snow white pearl with a few drops of H.O.K. Kandy pink and a few drops of Dupont pink........then I fogged the body with H.O.K Kandy pink........I will do the flames in a couple of days after the paint cures.......thanks for looking.
