INSPIRATION NEEDED...

Post by FasterLouder »

I have a new McAllister truck body sitting on my JRXT and I am drawing a blank when it comes to paint :shock:
I need inspiration! Please post some good paint schemes up for me?

Rick pulled a humdinger with that paint,alright!
Looks great,man.
The second pic you posted almost looks like the paint on my RC10T2,except in red.
I think I'll paint the bed and put the window masks on,that always helps me visualise the rest of the paint.
Thanks again,guys!

Because he's the man...

Personally saw his street/pre-runner driven around my home town on a regular basis. That was a nice looking truck too!

That along with these pics were the inspiration for my Slash (and JRXT :mrgreen: )

Both of which are Great I wish I could paint like that?

I use to be the paint guy around here :lol: I dont know what I am doing wrong, I cant seem to find a tape that wont bleed now a days? may be I don't have the patience's I use to?? I will get back. but these vintage bodies are to expensive to keep messing up :lol:

Can you put a core on the scales for me?
Doin' my weekly post office trip tomorrow and I'll hit 'em up about shipping. :wink:
You do plenty good with your paint jobs,too man. :D
