Can anyone tell me what paint I should use to match the colors of the RC10CE manual art body? Especially for the pink and orange. I know that the answer is completely subjective. We will never know exactly what paint was used. I’m sure some of you have experience reproducing this paint scheme. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
just order the decal set from MCI...go inverted and apply decals under the body before paint. looks like perfect paint afterwards.
heres mine on a new b6.2 body
Painted this one today. Trying to keep myself busy while my house is under quarantine. Not sure which body actually came with the team car kit, but I thought a manual art style paint job would look nice on a scoopless turbo mirage. Let me know what...
What kind of flat black paint do people use for the *outside* of the body, to paint in the roll cage areas? Is there a flat black paint meant to go on the outside? Or are they just using normal paint, or even the Krylon fusion plastic paint?

I do the same thing as Terry, but use Pactra Outlaw Black on both inside & outside. The outside paint dries to a semi-matte finish. The inside paint is just for when the outside paint gets scratched or dinged, it doesn't show as much. Using Pactra...

That looks sweet. Going to be doing this on a body for an actual CE car. Any huge benefit to the decals on the inside? I have never done this.
Thanks homz...car still sitting there just like that...never raced it, lol
Finished up, figured I'd share. I'm missing the number 4 auto graphics sheet and the correct rear tires. I added a couple modern twists.
Here's the original for those who don't know:

This is the scheme I used for my race bodies back in the early 90's. I plan on restoring my graphite and MIP 4wd in this scheme. Nicely done. I had wondered where I got it from, I thought it was Cliff Lett's scheme?
I finally broke enough custom parts lately to make me buy a modern ride. Of course I had to find a way to make my adopted Team Car manual art race scheme onto a B5M JC Finisher body.
The paint scheme worked well, but was missing something in the...
Thought I'd share my XXX-CR with box art painted body. I can't take credit for the work-I bought it and this and another body were in the box. The previous owner claims it was in the box sealed when he got it. He seems to think Losi sent some out...

That is swweeett! That is one lucky find! Makes me want to go buy that XXX-CR that has been sitting on my LHS shelf for the last year or so. Love that box art, now that it's cold and snowing I think I will tackle my XX, and JRX2 (courtesy of...
