LOSI XX CR KINWALD BOX ART

Post by FasterLouder »

This is what I've been up to,for the last few days.
Just waiting for the yellow to fully cure before I lay down the white/blue drips.
Then,it's on to the window frames-thanks for the tips on those,by the way guys.

I've been dreading this paint job,'cause I know full well that if I screwed it up,I can't get another X-Cellerator body!
All good,though. :)

That 'Trinity' decal on the wing is a repro me and a friend had done and they didn't turn out too well.
I've been meaning to get some repros of the Kinwald decal sheet I have done for ages,but I never got around to it.
I've taken a mint colour,32 bit scan of it,so I'll go ahead and cut up the origional sheet and I'll get some repros done using the scan.

Here's the decal sheet I have.
Hope I can get some good quality copies made from the scan.
I'm dreading cutting that decal sheet!
It's my precious... :(

This project has been keeping me sane,over the last few days.
I painted the wheel discs the correct yellow,too.
If anyone has some blue front springs that they want to get rid of...?

I have enough paint to box art my JRX2 body now,too. :)

Just the window frames to go,now.
Bummed that the decal sheet only has two 'Novak' decals on it-I'll have to fish out a third.
Also,I trimmed the front of the body a *little* too much for the 'Team Kinwald' decal,but I couldn't get it through the shock tower,unless I trimmed it...

Anyways,here's the photos...

OOPS... :oops:

The 13x3 'Dirtinator' motor is a nice finishing touch. :)

Got the window frames done!
Man,I was super scared to do 'em.Not like I could go buy another body and decal sheet if I screwed it up!
I used Pactra masking film-the blank stuff.Did the trick way better than masking tape could have done.
They need a few *tiny* touch ups,but I'm happy with it. :)
