Just practicing on my first Crowd Pleazer 2.0 body.

It’s been quite a while since I dusted off the ol air brush, not to mention how long it has been since I painted a Lexan body and it shows. :(

Here’s my first shot, there will be more to come. ;)

That paint job is pretty good...I can see the reflection of your hands and camera from one of the photos.

:)Yeah, I noticed that when I posted the pic. I was trying to get a good profile shot and didn’t have the time to retake the pic, didn’t think it would take too long to get a comment. ;)

I was also trying to get a good shot of the shading around the windows, which actually came out pretty nice, but the reflection was not allowing me to do that. Here is a pic with a little better lighting that shows the shading.

I like that! Very straight, graphical paint scheme that shows the nice curves of the body ... and its something else than the usual flames ;)

I was hoping for a bit more contrast between the upper body (blue and red) with the lower body (shaded white), however I'm pleased with my first effort. :)

I’ll be working on my next body soon incorporating some new paint ideas and possibly some personalized graphics I’ve been experimenting with. I'll post pics when I get something worth looking at. ;)
