howd you get that color?

Hmmm... Should I reveal my secret; give away the fruits of hours of paint-mixing experimentation?

Sure!

It's a mix of Parma Fasescent Yellow and Fasescent Red. I'm not going to tell you the exact formula, but basically just start with a half-bottle or so of yellow and add red until you get the color you want.

I was aiming for this color, and got pretty close - I could have used a tad bit more red:

What body is that?
I know it audi, but it doesn't look like A4,A6.A8 or TT.

Anybody has a link?

thanks in advance

Actually, it's not the 190mm HPI #7093 - it is HPI's 200mm Audi A4, #7045...

I'm not sure how different the two shells are, but this is the wider of them.

Hmmm... the fuel tank should tip you off that it is 200mm.

You are right. I was thinking about my 190mm all this time.
