Hey guys, here is my sassy chassis Bullhead with a Parma Ford Explorer Sport trac body... It is not finished as you see, still need to get some black car pinstriping for the windows, but you can enjoy these for now :) The colors are Pactra Flourescent orange and green spray ons, I used electrical tape for the stripes and Parma big flames paint masks. Enjoy :)

Thanx, windows are gonna be pinstriped black with car pinstriping and the thing weighs 7 pounds, dry, no batts, receiver, esc, wires, etc.

Hey Orange,
I think you are mistaking my advice for a rude remark.
Don’t jump to conclusions just because someone is offering up a suggestion on how to improve on something that you have done.
It’s called constructive criticism, don’t get mad at me because you can’t take criticism of your own work. If this is how you are going to be you will never improve on anything. After all isn’t that we are all here to do, help each other out, offer advise, critique each others work.

Nitro burner, how would I put down the orange paint first?? That means I would have had to masked off the rest of the truck instead of just those little areas. I put on 4 coats of pretty dang thick paint then orange on top of that green. Now, lets just forget about this and get on with our r/c lives ok? :D

Regardless of the advice issue, we now know that the sole purpose of this thread is fishing for compliments.

Looks good to me, Orange. I like how it glows! Or at least, how it has that effect in the picture.
Bullheads are cool. :)

Geeeesss, some people are just to sensitive.
Yes it would have been more difficult to put the orange on first, but if you want to do the best, highest quality paint job you need to spend a little time on it. Another alternative would have been to change the colors (i.e. put the green where the orange is now and vice versa).

Ped,
I think a better way of putting NBs comment, if you backed the green with white or silver it wouldn't have shown through.
