here are 2 new ones I just finished.
S2000, custom dark deep purple (very nice color!) pics dont show well. Carbon fiber hood. Faskolor silver and white graphics on side. And yes the very popular TFATF eclipse. Carbon hood on this one was with a splash of gold in the mix for a different contrast. I prefer the one on the S2000 better but it stil looks good.

Hey dkangel, looks great! Would it be alright if I put your pics on my website? Here's the site: Cosmic R/C. (http://www.cosmicrc.cjb.net)

Lmk either way.

Thanx

Also, if you have a website, then I could post that too, if you'd like...

LOL, that's what I was thinking too! At least that was my first impression, then I noticed theres no chassis under them.

dkangel, I am in love with the purple one. Everything about it looks good. Great paint colors and scheme. I really like the tire/wheel combo you got there. What are they?


Excellent work again!


Oh yeah! Can't forget to mention....great photo work. Nice attention to detail! :D

Thanks for the compliments guys!! :D

I am trying to avoid the TFATF vibe here, but I just paint what I think is going to sell.

Kingklown - I checked out your link. nice webiste. Feel free to post my pics there. I have others if you need them.
I unfortunately don't have a webiste yet. Still working towards that. :(

Kodiak - HPI p/n 7314. They also have a body insert so you can cut the roof and make it convertible with driver.

Maxxtrasher - I am not sure who makes the tire and wheel combo. My buddy found them on Ebay and I use them just for my pics now, cuz he's not running them. I'll try to find out.

Etremetmaxxer - lol

Nice clean paint (as always). I like the idea of tweaking out the charcoal with a touch of gold for that realism in the carbon fiber....will have to steal that one from ya :)

pudder..... it looks like the chassis and running gear are made of that new stealth material. You can see right through it. Check out the view through the window.................. right through to the pavement......... wow. I gotta get me some of that stuff......... LOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BTW... the paint jobs are great.. specially the carbon fiber hoods.... well done.

:cool: :cool:

Bluesy - Thanks for the compliment!! Yes I like the new "tranparent chassis" I recently got for the pics. Its even more fun when running without a body. All you see is a set of wheel comming at ya!! lol I even got see-thru electronics!!!

PureTMaxx - Thanks!! and yes you can steal that tweak..... :rolleyes:

DRsuce - Thanks :D

dkangel:
Is that blue/white splash wave thing a decal or paint? If it's paint, what blue did you use?

Also, what green is that?

britton - The graphics on the side of the body are not a decal.
They are painted and the color is custom mix of Parma Faskolor blue, dark blue and some white to get that color. It is almost identical to the Pactra Blue. The green is again Parma Faskolor mix that is similar to Pactra Racing Green.
You can get the Pactra colors in rattle cans at your LHS.
The graphics were hand cut using Bob Dively's liquid mask and a lot of patience.
I get a lot of requests for this body

I have used Pactra paints before and I think the ones just mentioned would be green: Pactra Rally Green and the blue: Pactra Blue Streak.
