Painted my first body today, it was a body i had laying around that had been drilled for a tmaxx, i redrilled it and threw on a coat of paint, nothing special, but i have always been a fan of the old K-5 Blazers, Dont bash my first paint too bad. Hopefully after tomorrow i will have some better pictures of it out in the sun.

Looks good so far. I painted my first candy orange about two weeks ago, turned out like crap. I have sprayed basic colors and metallics with ease, but the candy, not again.
 
What looks cool on scalers since there is no real high speed bashing, is a coat of flat "primer" colored paint, such as a gray, then as you get trail damage on her and scratch it, it looks like real damage. When it gets bad enough, just throw on another layer of flat and start it all over.
