BUMP....been browsing through some old threads. First of all....I HATE YOU....i screw up a revo body 2 days ago that i tried to paint black, then i find this thread. I see you are complaining about some bodies that look amazing but you're complaining about some shading stuff that i really don't see what you're talking about. They look amazing to me. I am here to make you a deal. Anytime you have a body for a revo that you don't like, send me a pic in a PM. If you mess up the "shading" and i like the colors we do this. I paypal you the cash for the body and the "ride", then you buy another body to "get the shading right" and ship me the "bad shading" body. So, i am giving you a free chance to get the "shading" right.

So, we got a deal?

No 2 painters think or work alike. That's why I do what I do, and you continue to knock my socks off.

I really like your "portfolio displays". That's a cool effect.

...and thanks for the compliment, but you got a way with an airbrush I just havn't figured out.
