This is my first body that I've tried any sort of really custom paint job. It took forever!!! I had two single action airbrushes going. They suck, but I couldn't imagine doing that kinda work with only 1 airbrush.

Whatta ya think?

I have 5 or 6 single action paasche's (most are worn out). I use them for dying leather seats. I was able to get 2 of them working (so I can spray 2 colors without having to clean anything. I just haven't done anything at all artistic with an airbrush for 13 or 14 years.

Excellent looking work.

Like Silas mentioned, the more you do it the better you'll get. Half the time you probably wouldnt even notice the skillz forming. Then one day, you'll get done with one, look at it, and wonder...."WOW, Did I do That?" :thumb:

WOW looks awsome Carey, and yes with more practice he will be putting out some awsome bodies Carey is pretty slick at anything he does. Carey who's body is that?

This one is mine...though I'd sell it & try something different.

They didn't have any of the C-10 bodies.

Sell it to Jason.

He's just going to run a cut Betty body. He's going to do one up with his business logo on it, then the truck can become a tax write-off for his business. :monkeyeye:

I got a sticker guy that makes vinyl masks for me from time to time... easiest way to do it I think.

I just picked up the Parma Stencil kit at the semi-local hobby shop (it's about an hour drive to find a decent hobby shop).

I kinda wish I'd had more colors. I'd have liked to have had the silver fade into a dark red behind the skull...for a more evil look.

I got a C10 crawler body today, so I'm going to try something with it next. I also have to paint a buddy's Helios... though it'll just have a more conservative, more traditional paint job. There just isn't alot of body to work with on the Helios.
