This is a new build RC10B3 I tried to do as a boxart style. Needs the decals to be complete, unfortunately I didn't have those on hand.

Currently on Ebay as well:

It was shadowed first with black faskolor with airbrush. Shot 4 light coats Pactra Candy Red and backed it with Pactra Indy Silver, both rattle can.

Very cool sir. Can I ask what tape you use to mask out? I use the tamiya yellow tape and it often allows bleeding when in some tight areas. Im over it.

I used 3M's Scotch fine line tape. 1/8" width, p/n 06300. A little pricey, but it lasts forever and doesn't bleed.

They have come out with something a little better since I last purchased the above roll. It's supposed to be more flexible, which is a good thing on lexan bodies.

The blue masking tape is 3M's blue painters tape. It is the new kind that isn't supposed to bleed around the edges as bad.

And if you don't have one of these yet, get one:
