I was thinking the same thing.... the blind bug. LOL. Looks cool. I need a different lid for my Mini T.. stock one is lame. Pretty cool. Has a 70's 80ish feel to it.
 
I did the same body about a month ago in a "tuxedo" scheme. Silver on black, with the break and pinstripe down the bodyline under the windows. Looked very '30s (correct era?). it was sweet, untill I accidently grabbed acetone instead of DA to clean off some overspray. Ugh, yeah I was pissed. I immediately threw it away I was so disgusted.

P.S. So you ended up buying another mini-t after I bought the one from you or did you have two?

Got one locally for near cheap. 35 bux but it is still stock. I need to show it some TLC.

yeah baby! hook it up! I finally got rid of that POS GPM ball diff and got a Losi. Finally, this truck is complete.
 
That looks good Josh. The lines are clean and the fades look good. I think you're making tons of headway in your painting. Heck, it's reminding me that I have to get back to it and work on my skills.

Thanks a lot bro. Those are very kind words.

Next is my stock RC18T body. Generally speaking I prefer to create my own designs but I've been tinkering with the idea of replicating the factory team GT2 paint scheme that AE has in all the mags..
