OK guy's.

Time for another contest.

Where not going to have the different categories like the last time.
It will be judged as 1st 2nd and 3rd top paint jobs.

Prizes will be announced before the contest kicks off.

I will give you a few days to get a body.
This contest will start next Friday, May 26th.

Don't paint anything yet as we might make this a theme contest.

Please post your comments here.

ah crap.. Now I gotta order a new airbrush too.. How long is it gonna run for?
 
I would love to but I have no clear shells at the moment, and a 300 mile round trip to a hobby shop. So I guess I will be sitting this one out.

Looking forward to your entry Mel.
 
NCNitro,
There is a hobby shop on the circle in Sebring again. it is just 2 to 4 doors down from the old hobby shop. it is called Hobby Inn. I haven't been there but I have heard good things.

I was there, I was pretty disappointed, they have not had a single thing I have needed since they opened. Then when I ordered something from them it took 10 days to get it. They have like two old bodies, and there paint is so old it's no good anymore. They only have a tiny rc section, with pretty much just stock Traxxas parts.

But that means this time you would have to actually paint it AFTER the contest begins, lol... :D

Wow! someone needs a :chillpill

You got a guilty conscience? Maybe you missed the "lol" and " :D " I was just ribbing ya man. I have just never seen anyone cut, trim, liquid mask, and paint a multi colored paintjob with the quality of your work, in 24 hours. So THAT"S WTF!
