This poll is restarting due to RCCA being down for several days last week.


This month in the pro catagory we have DesignT1 squaring off against adrcracing. Good luck to both of you!


Please vote the best body according to the following criteria

1) Design: How well does the design fit/flow on the body? Is it visually appealing? How are the color choices? Originality does not count, but naturally something that every painter has done will not score as high as something unique and new.

2) Execution: Regardless of how complex or difficult it is, how well is it executed? Are there paint bleeds? Are the lines straight (or correctly curved)? Are their obvious mistakes? Fingerprints in the paint or paint bleeds? How well executed are the fades and other basic painting techniques? etc.

3) Difficulty: How hard was this body to paint? Is it one color? Is the entire thing 5mm checkers with 4 different colors in each square? Are the mask lines through difficult areas of the body (i.e., wing mounts or stadium truck beds)? It may be 2 colors, but is one marbled? Is one color a candy that requires a special backing technique? This is where experience as a painter helps the most.

Adracing, I didnt vote for you because I would like to see something a little different from you.
You are obviously super skilled, but you tend to post mostly the same shells with awesome designs... I want to see something else be graced by your mad paint skills... Your lunchbox is a good example.

Its nice to see new people win. I also like that people seem to expect new and better designs in order to stay on top. The last thing I want is the good painters becoming complacent.

ADRCRacing:

Are you hand painting or airbrushing those lightning bolts?

I use a Paasche Flow pencil for the bolts.
