Painting up the buggy and mini b bodys. Is it ok so not do the white or black base cover coat? I ran out of white cover coat. So just wondering. I did kinda rush on the bodies and got some over spray but not a big deal I'll call it as a design feature. Later down the road for the buggy I'll get a new body and wing and take my time on it.

Maybe for my next body, get a pro body painter and use the actual liquid paints and air brush? Add some cool designs.

When I paint, I do white then silver so black doesn't bleed through. I then shoot black to hide all the other colors. On my crawlers I do that, then paint the inner area around windows an interior color of the 1:1.

The silver prevent black bleeding to lighter colors.

As for airbrush, most rc paint is washable. If you mess up wash it again and retry. If you airbrush, use a can to seal it when done.
 
looks nice
