The wing is peril white (same as the back section). I will mount that up when it gets closer to raceday.
Also I was hoping there would have been a little better sun light, but it is better then inside my house.
As for the wheels they are parma's pro 54's, but I normaly use their normal sized wheels (that is what the body was cut to fit)

Thanks Eric
I guess you could say that is my standard way of doing lights (I too like the way they work).

Awesome paint job. My only other comment is tht the rear end is kinda plain, IMHO. I think it needs a little something to spice it up on that end. But again. That paint is great.

Thanks guys
I was going to add a little more to it, but I wanted to keep it on the simple side, and it was to help keep it a little brighter so I can see it on the track.
The wheels are for photos only right now, as they are the only ones that are still white :D

I am really wanting to be able to paint like that i bought a peak c-5 and parma f-1 and have a ton of paint but do not understand how people layer colors and graphics ??? I donot use precut masks and do all my own masking but i just have brush control issues. Do you use masks?

Everything is hand cut out of liquid mask (even the windows).
Normaly I will start with painting the pinstipres (so you don't risk pulling them up with the larger setctions) and I backed the silver (parma chrome) with black, then I painted green section, and backed it with opaque green (createx aqua), then I painted the blue section along will all the streaks, then after that the head lights and grill, then I did the front yellow/orange section, after that I did the pink white section, and then I finnished it off with the rear tail lights, and window trim. As long as you plan for 98% of everything to be painted darkest color first then you will be able to plan out paint jobs better.
Also this might help you understand things a little better (this is a link to my local tracks forums, but the step by step and body was for somthing on cfxpaintworks.com and parma)
