I think flourescent yellow would look tight, or white. I as gonna say orange also. White might end up to be kind of boring though.... How about like a sunburst orange/yellow fade combo? that would be awesome!!!
 
Wow. Nice job so far TJ.
 
If you're gonna use a white or bright base, the shading will be very critical. Hope the Iwata does you good too. Nice control with the blade. Maybe white, or a white w/purple pearlescence base?

hi nice design,just wondering what sort of maskol do you use?? i seem to either get snag's or it drag's??? could it be the maskol i have been useing or the scauple, i use number 10 swann morton blades
 
Shits awesome. Looks like decals everything so perfetc on it.

I think you should do the base coat to look like metal. Like a aluminum color. Thatd look sick with the bolts you have on there.

Blue and Orange are color opposites. Dont know how "good" it would look but it would def pop with a bright orange.

Sorry Rob, actually blue and yellow are opposite, thats why blue and yellow looks so good together.

Hey ImBroken, do the base color mirror chrome, that would look sweet with those colors! Or even indy silver.
 
Thanks guys.. I'm still waiting on a new hose for my brush. My old hose popped on me the other day, scared the piss outa me... lol
I used a THICK coating of Bob Dively's Liquid Mask. 3 to be exact... My designs were drawn on the outside of the shell, and carefully cut out with #11 exacto blades. I'm not sure what color I'll be doing the base coat yet. I'm leaning towards a white pearl into a light gray, or a hard metal color. Chrome might be too much, and wont last very long on the track. Hopefully my hose will get here soon.. :)

you just do the dots with a sharpie?

The dots are drawn with a sharpie. The dots are only to show me where it needs shading. They will not be part of the paint scheme.. lol
