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.

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!

? 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!  ?

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!

The engine is painted in Deco's Festive Green and the body in Testors' #1835 Lime Ice Extreme Lacquer.

Build on!
