Cool Hand Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Thanks for the comments on the paint work. Hey Luke i think you got the hang of that airbrush pretty quick.... man that design is awesome .... ....Not criticizing in any way, but id love to see this all in colour......Im smoothin out the Monte Carlo bodywork at the mo, then Im going to try something Crazy for the paintjob... , .you do great paint mate, wish i was half as good as this.... .....Lowlife ! ! Thanks Martin. I did alot of research and watched many youtube videos before I attempted using the airbrush.Which helped big time. Yeah the whole body is getting done,Im currently working on the sides,should be done in a few days. Just a suggestion before you do some tape and paint work on the Monte,find some spare bonnets/hoods and have some practice on them first. Hey Luke.. need some info Bud... Do you happen to have the number for the Pegusus wheel and rim combo? I can't find mine and any help will be appreciated. Thanks...

wgflatliner Posted May 6, 2012 Author Share Posted May 6, 2012 alright, here's an update. the trunk mural is going to be the evil leprechaun. this is only a progress photo. i need to touch up on the hat and get it perfected. once i get the hat done, i'll slowly work in the building up of the hands and shoulder areas. once it's final then i'll start foiling and clear coat. i also did another coat for the bottom of the hood to tie it all together.

Joker Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Using Mark's( wgflatliner)double #11 blade tape technique.. (thanks Mark) I ventured into adding some scallops to the roof. The round tape was cut using a paper hole puncher. with visor this is my modeling OCD kicking in.. the rear view mirror looked naked.. so I carved and painted one of these...LOL James aka Joker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
