My first R/C paint job

[jcnalley]

Here is some pictures of a Proline F-650 body that I painted for my E-Maxx.I think it came out pretty good for my first body.Colors used were Spaz Stix Mirror Chrome,Spaz Stix Gold/Green/Orange/Purple color changing paint,and Pactra Outlaw Black.

That looks awesome. I have an emaxx also but I was to lazy at the time to paint my own body so I just bought a atomik F-350 body.

jc, see my comments behind your entry in the contest. Your first pic looks mightly cloudy and is hard on the eyes. It looks like you overdid the contrast and brightness settings or it's the flash coming back at the camera. Use the advice provided by ^j!nx^ in his thread for tips and tricks to really show off that paint job. Great bit of work you have there, just need to work on displaying it for better scoring.

Calvin, thanks for the masks. I had pulled that one off of ******* a while back to use on my M18 body. Excellent mask to use.
