Cool, now it's picking up speed. And I'm thinking I just HAVE to do 1 airbrush job and 1 rattle can job. Because methinks SMaxxin needs to learn a lesson...
 
I'm in, but no doubt there was confusion on the rules last time. Lets clarify them and get this going. It's a little late for a jan contest, but we can get it going for Feb.
 
This is great..Let get the rules squared away and get this thing going. Candyman, I know you got some serious painting skills but

I AM THE RATTLE CAN KING.............It's on!


I know there are a few more of you out there that think they know how to sling paint so get yourself entered.

I painted this one. (Run a search for a 59' nomad..yep 59..lol was a mistype..lol) It was a fun lid to paint, but the trim was preatty excessive, but looked nice done.
 
SWEET! Alrighty, lets's get it goin. I figure we need two things..

1: a clear outline of the rules and catagories

2: an entry deadline

even if it ends up just being a handful of people it will create some interest.. hopefully enough to make future contests larger... I'm in!
 
if only I had enough money for a new 1/8 body AND tires.... Then I could really smoke SMaxxin with a new Paintjob... :D Guess i'll have to settle for last months flames :rolleyes:
 
I'm in and i have one done ...I didn't take a pic of it before hand to show it was clear in the time line proved because it didn't seem this was going to take off but i have a few crap pics of it now and will have some better ones tomorrow .. and i don't have any RCnitro talk stickers on it .. if it's cool i would like to enter .. i can always photoshop a logo on it ..lol
But no really let me know
 
I sorta want in. Have 2 bodies. I've seen the talent here. I don't stand a chance.....

If things straighten out, I'm in.

Don't worry about your painting skillz, it's all about having fun and a little friendly competition. I'm talking smack but I can't paint for poop LOL Join up and have fun with it.

I say we just change the dates on these rules and get it going. Maybe give two weeks to show your clear body, then a few weeks to get it painted. What does everybody think?

he's exactly right. I'm no extaordinary painer either but I do enjoy it. It's a good way to challenge your own skills and learn something new.

I would say start a new thread with the updated rules, make it a sticky and have a list near the top of who is participating :2cents:
 
We will try this again. The new contest will start and a new thread will be posted on or before Feb 1st.

Start getting your bodys ordered and your paint ready.
FYI.....

You will have to post a pic of the virgin body with proof of date to enter, so don't start yet. The proof of date will need to be AFTER the date the new contest thread is posted.

Damnit... in that case i can't do it. What if I painted my body within the last months competition? Can I still enter it? It meets all the restrictions besides this one. If not thats ok... ill just watch.
