WC paint theme

[savagefan04]

so watching the WC over the past couple weeks inspired me to piant up (or try to paint up ) a new lid for my slash...

lessons learned during the process:

use pin striping tape for straighter lines
its not as easy as you think

let me know what you think. i also added in the AKA 17mm wheel adapters

Looks pretty good! Good work. And welcome to the wonderful world of painting. Never underestimate the ability of a simple paint job to frustrate you to the very end!

@ NitroRc4life - thank you for the kind words. this is actually my 3-4 body i've painted but the first one that using liquid masking and hand drawing the design. the other bodies were just 1-2 tone color fades. basic stuff...

Thanks Josh - it was a fun project and i'm starting to itch for another one...

the body earned a few battle scars today in the drive way. nothing crazy, just some road rash from roll overs and a bad landing. now it looks complete. haha
