I started painting this yesterday as a quick build while waiting on things for my other two projects to dry. Going to be just as intended, a Slammer with different wheels. I airbrushed Pure Ice "Free Fall" nail polish for the pink and HOK Plain White with a light coat of Testors White Lightning for the Pearl White.

I'll be removing the tape in an hour or so. Hope there was no bleed under.

An excellent start!  I'm excited to see it with the tape pulled off too! 

I would've shot the white first and then the pink, but it looks good in the pic above to me!

Thanks! I would have shot the white first too but it was actually an afterthought. I was going to go with Graphite metallic instead of the Pearl white.

So, here it is. No bleed under and I don't think it looks half bad. Should be able to finish this by Friday or Monday.

Absolutely beautiful paint sir. I love those colors together.

Thank you Carl! I actually just taped off the white and sprayed another coat of the pink. I had a couple of spots that I didn't like. Looks much better to me now. Into the dehydrator and BMF and clear tomorrow.

Looking awesome Tom. 

Do you ever give the panel lines a wash? 

Sometimes I do. I may have to do it on this one because of the white. I have some grey panel accent that I may mix with a bit of the white and a bit of the pink separately and see how it looks.
