Shook off some ring rust & painted

Post by howsyouraspen »

So I got a smokin deal on an older JC Concepts body. Took advantage of the 3 day weekend. Figured I'd freshen up the ol XXXCR. Haven't painted for a bit... :|

Great looking paint. The lines fit the overall shape of the body very well and I love the asymmetrical idea!

Thanks, yes it is a basic Tamiya rattle can color called Corsa Gray. I used all rattle cans except for the orange which I mixed competition orange, neon red and flourescent yellow and sprayed through my airbrush.
