I finished my first ever RC body paint job and I thought I'd share. Simple 2 color scheme and a few stickers. There was some paint bleed from poor masking (taped).

Thanks. I wasn't sure how that red was going to turn out but I really like the results.

OK good deal. Not trying to insult your intelligence but some first time painters use just a hardware store paint and it quickly chips and peels away.

LOL no worries. I've spent the last month reading forums, watching youtube and many trips to the hobby shops asking questions. I can confidently say that now I have even more questions! LOL.
Looks great! I usually feel like partying after painting a body. Tamiya fumes
