Well with my new found love of touring sedans and there cool bodys and paint jobs i decided to give them a whril.after talking with evil 3 ( great guy ) a little and reading about how people paint and seeing some great posts on how to paint i wanted to start getting into painting more.now i'm not like these guys and do not spray a body a day as i have 3 kids and not a whole lot of time to pratice but i have the stuff to do it and plan to pursue painting more as i loved it! This was my first try with liqude mask and freehand cutting and boy was it hard . Next was the painting and that did not go so well either i need to learn how to back paints and what colors to use to do so but i really had fun doing it and plan to try to paint 1 a week . Also the grill is not complete as i am waiting for paint to try a carbon look

Now you are hooked, right!

Keep painting and they get better and better. After 50 or so you will be a pro with the best of "em.

As Dave said, once you paint a lot of them, you will be painting some sick looking shells.


A little tip, besure to make sure the edges of the masking is on the body (LM can and does lift at times), other then that you are off to a good start. I have to say that is a small body to learn on tho.

yes you are right it is small but it needed paint . Also smaller bodys are cheaper but a bigger body would be great for better pratice. And please anyone tell me all the bad things that you see so i can inprove . Ps evil 3 thanks for the help and tips as i can use all the help i can get
