Best Paint Competition #5 (No restrictions)

[mab_man20]

Welcome everyone to the Fifth Best Paint Competition!!

The best paint competition will be open for entrees for two weeks and will close at 12:00 AM June 15th at midnight.
Restrictions: NONE. Anything is legal.

In the following two weeks (June 16 to June 30) we will hold the fifth Street/Race Competition. Each month we will hold a Best Paint and Street/Race competition. If you can’t get your bodies done this month, don’t worry there will be plenty more to come!!

The winning bodies may appear in Radio Control Car Action or R/C Nitro!!


RULES for Best Paint:

1) Any body may be submitted to the competition (Truck, buggy, touring car, etc).
2) Any body submitted may NOT appear in another competition.
3) Photo editing the pictures (other than cropping and adjusting brightness/contrast) is highly looked down upon and may result in disqualification.
4) Anyone may enter a body (professional painters are welcome!)
5) Please refrain from insulting bodies in anyway.
6) Must fall within this month's restrictions (June restrictions: None)
7) Only 2 entrees per person
8) Bodies should be painted within the last 4 months.

Each submission must include the following:
Body manufacturer and size.
Paint used
Masks used (hand or precut)
Inspiration (could be another paint job).
And of course, a body.

This month T3GT will be judging the Best paint competition.

Each body will be judged by the following criteria (1-bad, 10-excellent):

Difficulty (score 1-10)
Over all design (score 1-10)
Execution (score 1-10)

The photo and background will not be judged. All that is needed is a clean photo that clearly shows the body.

Each month we will place some restriction on all entrees.

July restrictions:
Best Paint- “Heavy Metal” (whatever comes to mind when you here that phrase).
Street/Race- Yet to be determined. Keep an eye out for a separate thread.

GOOD LUCK

:) Thanks Frank

The pic is really bad, and the body looks 4x better in real life....

[Dust]

Frank,

I have been searching for those flames on the side of your truck body. Is that a mask.

Can you e-mail me a close up picture of the flames on the side of your truckPlease? Corkran.Nicholson2@verizon.net

Thankx- Dust

[FrankT]

they are the big flames from parma and I also added some parma tape for some more coverage...www.parmapse.com/rcitem.asp?n=10786

acidburn AWSOME body..thats looks sooo cool very nice work

[doubleA]

Nice one Acid!!

Believe it or not I did a body for a friend about 2 years ago that had the same "circuit board" theme. Although the conducts were actually chopped-up Intel ads from computer mags. Yours is much more detailed!! Very original!

All the bodies look great so far. Makes me want to paint something!! But with about 4 weeks till my wedding no time:(.....I have the bodies and ideas just no time.

Thanks for the inspiration.....

[acidburn]

Thanks :D!

The pain of masking the conducts (?) was worth it compared to my previous attempt using testor's gold paint marker.

[LouisB]

That is the nicest body I've seen in ages acidburn! perfect rips and amazing detail:D

[NTC3Qualifier]

Sorry - here is the pic

[NTC3Qualifier]

and from the other side

[HauntedMyst]

Great work acidburn! It is even better then the original!

[acidburn]

Thanks again :)!

HM, my first attempt was an experiment... this time, I was commissioned to do this so, it had to look professionally done :D

[RallySteve]

Nice, acidburn!!!

That's really cool! Now throw a chassis under that badboy.

RS

[eliseracer]

Was that Civic your body? I personnaly liked how much tighter the circuitry was on the previous one, but it looked a lot better this time around because of the peeling off of the JGTC theme.

This one yours?

[acidburn]

RS, will do.

eliseracer, yup! that's my civic... didn't have an airbrush then so, i "cracked" the transition. Actually, I borrowed our company's airbrush and compressor to work on the silvia. With regards to the tighter circuitry on the civic, it was easy 'cause I simply drew them in... imagine masking it ;) in short I got lazy - lol.

TG10Runner, nice enzo!

[AceCoolie]

TG10Runner, can you post how you mixed your green? I'm going to paint a 360 GT and that color would be perfect. Thanks!

LannyT: Great first attempt at the 1/8th.

NTC3Qualifier: Cool color combo...I'll bet its hard to miss on the track.

LouisB: Killer buggy! How long ago did you paint it?

acidburn: Circuit board+amazing "peal"+realistic rear= one mean looking body.

TG10Runner: Awesome!.... This body will fair much better in the best street/race competition that starts on the 15th. If you want to pull it out of this competition you can enter it in the Best street/race, but i cant let you enter it in both.

I will take your advice and withdraw my entry from this competition and enter the best street/race competition. Thanks

AceCoolie:
The Green was mixed using Tamiya Park Green (PC21) and Tamiya Green (PC9), roughly 60:40 respectively. I'm not 100% sure about the ratio as I was just trying to match the Alitalia decals and wasn't paying much attention to the mix.

not to sound like a noob.. okay i'm noob :D . but whats a 14 volt brushless and whats the big deal w/ it???

[Polk]

Pffffffffffffffffft, you could spin like that with a nitro any day of the week....

[heavytank2]

A brushless motor is basically an inside-out electric motor, the coils wrap around a smaller armature, therefore they don't need brushes.

Besides not having to change brushes ever again, they pump out massive torque, so you can gear for a really fast car and not burn up anything.

They also live on voltage, so 14v pretty peppy. Most run 8-9-10 cells, or 9.6-10.8-12 volts.



And pfftt... nitro, obviously your biased, so silence, the only thing I don't like about nitro is the fact you have to set the clutch so that the motor basically does nothing in the low-rpm range to keep it from stalling, where as with an electric motor you can go as fast or as slow as you want, with very fine control.

To prove that last statement, somewhat, I've only seem electric drifting cars so far, sure, there might be nitro, but I haven't seen them yet.


Sorry to get off topic guys, back to the paintjobs, I was just curious about his BL setup.

[Odddude]

I dont like ur attitude...

[boostspike]

sorry for the off topic too... but last question.. how much is a Brushless motor (appox.)... hell i'll get one.. (sorry, did search.. didn't help).:)

[Odddude]

http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXDDD7&P=0

Novak Super Sport Brushless System: $234.99


not bad.. i thought it was $300


SOMEDAY... JUST SOMEDAY... i will get one.. :D

[Odddude]

wow.. i just realised its not that expencive.. and it comes with an esc.. in the long run.. its very good.. hehe time to beg dad.. (oh sh*t.. u didnt read that)

[DualBL]

sorry to get this forum off topic...:rolleyes:
I'll add, there were no masks (except included windows) and insperation is WRC:D

ya, that's a brushless on 14.4V

it's got a spool (locked diff) in the rear, and I've used MIP Shiny CVDs, but they still snapped:mad:
not sure weather to retire this car, sell, or try to get some TI cvd's machined....

there's tons of info in the brushless forum (Electric forum)...

it's a Lehner 5300 motor with a 7018 controller, www.rumrunnerhobbies.com served me well:p

the limit is 10 cells on this motor, and even Donnie of RRH only recomends 8 max...
lol

the whole setup costs about $240

and I got another identical setup that I'm going to be running Dual 5300's in a Hyper7Pro 1/8 buggy
each motor will have 8-10 cells

can't wait:cool:

oh yeah, check www.brushless.owns.it for more brushless info:rolleyes:

[DualBL]

also, polk, in those action pics, I was only running 6 cells, and it's hard to drive that fast of a car, in a 50x50 patch of gravel, AND take a picture of it ;-)

trust me, it'd take a serious nitro to beat my tc3.
sad thing is, it's got too much torque for it's own good:mad:

[streetracer87]

I noticed that after they were mounted. The lettering is on the wrong side, which is what I was paying attention to when I mounted the tires. Not to mention that the darn Ofna wheels' spokes are the same on all 4. So they go one direction on the left and a different direction on the right.

[mab_man20]

Addicted to RC: Simple yet cool!

spoolin: Do i see flames?? Can we get some better pics of the body. (thats a beast of an Emaxx!)

[Yendor]

[Yendor]

I used Faspearl Charcoal with the plastic wrap and then sprayed Createx Opaque Lilac on top.

[LouisB]

Fantastic body Yendor, enough flames?:D

[cyb0rg]

These all look really cool, well done. A few comments about the ones that stick out in my mind:

FrankT: Nice color scheme, and the marble flames a very original, don't think I've ever seen something like that.

andy51289: Nice design, and the color contrast is what makes it look so good. Two thumbs up.

acidburn: OMG that had to take forever. Flawless rip job.

geo8498: Nice colors, cool name (alien goo). A little too busy for my tastes, but still very nice.

[KawadaKid]

[mab_man20]

dpgumby69: The next paint competition starts on July 1. I think we will have another open competition starting August 1.

[autotr8er]

Hey thanks, I'm having a lot of fun running that body.

I saw a lot of awesome paint schemes. I didn't think that I would even place.

I wasn't sure what information you needed, but thanks.

I think that acidburn's paint job was so awesome, that it intimidated more people not to post on this competition.

I'm curious on what he can come up with next.
