Recommended Posts

it would be nice to post a pic of the rig and put details of colour used like make and such as this might help other members choose the right colour for the car/truck and help to prevent mistakes, so for an example i will show my mistake, and yes i mean mistake having got it wrong twice i am about to cancel the pre order for the next mistake

 

My example is the 2016 Ford f-150 in core rc metallic green and core rc metallic gold (Bullion)

Great idea @Jack Reacher.

Some kind of Chevy meant for something other than a SCX10 ii iirc!

 

TS-94 Gunmetal and plain old PS-5

Painted this when I had not a clue about TS or PS for lexan or hardbodies etc so naturally the gunmetal is ****'d cause it doesn't 'bend' very well:(

Backed in black.

The blue on this Hemtt beast is AS-8 , US Navy Blue which I believe is meant for aircraft? Anyway, I really like it and i'll not be driving it around too much so not concerned about it tipping and scratching.

(It's all about the background!)

TS-28 Drab Olive 2. So inspiring 'drab', lol.

Orange is  TS-98 "Pure Orange".

I chose those two as they're very similar to my Bell MTB Helmet hah!

Most recent excursion and so much easier doing small panels than a full body!

PS-5 Black and PS-13 Gold. Didn't back them with anything as I ran out of patience.

Went for gold and black after Wolves :)

 

Last up

Tamiya TS-43 Racing Green.

It's on top of about 20 layers of black and orange but haven't put a clear coat over.

 

That's yer lot.

Think I need more RC.

This was my first attempt at doing the Jconcepts 2016 Ford F-150 shell, the colour was core RC Metallic red but still feel it did not come out a proper red more orange, this was backed by core gloss black

FS racing F150 (1).JPG

I'm trying to think what it reminds me of but it's just not coming to the forefront!!! Defo looks a bit too orange though!

This was painted using the following:

 

first Core RC Clear sparkle

them Core Rc Neon Pink

last Core Rc White knight.

 

the clear sparkle is quite runny so your masking need to be good (as I discovered)

the bottom picture show as as it is now, I did the window surrounds and black detailing with some Kyosho Micron tape, and some black Vinyl.

 

the Sparkle really does show up better in person.
