[BulletsRain]

Can't wait to see how it turns out! I like how it sits on the chassis. :)

[scoter]

[blue504life]

thanks, it sits better now that its mounted,but looks good like that

its low, nice, good job so far

haha, yeah its low, thanks
scoter, try to make your post more than just a sentance

[65mustangrock]

maybe for the paint you could do red on the main body then black on the hood,wing, side vents ,and the the roof. Just what I say. whatever you do will turn out good!

[amorton94]

you finally got the it! i'd do the black accents if i were you

[kendallcschm]

really nice... i dont normally like toyotas but this one is nice so far

[XMDrifter]

love the look. if you can, try to make it stay almost as low, but with driveability.
or better yet, make adjustable ride height bodymounts

[blue504life]

the red is gone, talking with kaze last night, and i found a nice blue, he agreed it was nice so thats it
you finally got the it! i'd do the black accents if i were you
unsure of where the black will be, but it might be kinda like the veilside RX7 from tokyo drift
really nice... i dont normally like toyotas but this one is nice so far
im not a toyota fan either but i love this car
love the look. if you can, try to make it stay almost as low, but with driveability.
or better yet, make adjustable ride height bodymounts
it sits low, prob 1mm off the ground, and its still drivable, adjustable mounts is just to much work

[texan_idiot25]

That's not a mustang..? You feeling alright Blue50?

[blue504life]

That's not a mustang..? You feeling alright Blue50?

[AJB32690]

Hmmm.... usually I hate Toyotas, but this one is killer. I think you should paint it yellow. There are too many red cars...

[blue504life]

its going to be blue or orange, with black doors like the veilside RX7 in tokyo drift

So you are taking my advice huh? You need to update this thread on the other site *cough xmf cough*.

Great work so far. The seats are a nice touch, are you going to be able to do a dash?

BTW post 2 is up to date with everything

[XMDrifter]

touch up on the places when the paint went out of line.
and keep the steering wheel black with the orange accent.
that's all the suggestions i can think of now.
and do creative masking to paint the body instead of brushes to do the second color.

[merc3des]

That is an original project, never seen this car done before. The interior color is great. 10/10 so far. Don't screw up the color, no pressure, just don't screw up the color lol.

its all cleaned up now, just throwing in up there, the wheels will stay like it is then, i no longer hand paint the bodys, but the masking will be hard dont know if i should lay bown the black first or the orange

thanks, its one of a kind (atleast i think)

[XMDrifter]

put the orange down first

[blue504life]

put the orange down first

you think thats the best way to do it?

[XMDrifter]

lighter colors down first, then darker colors

and to paint a lexan clearbody(an exception cuz it's clear and you paint from the inside...standard on 1:10 scales) dark first, then light

that's how i learned it

[blue504life]

[merc3des]

As colors go you always want the base coat your first color, duh. Give us an idea of how you are painting it, where the orange is going to be. Let's not screw up the paint :p

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=4Npq2BpTBaw
theres the paint style and i have no clue what the original base coat is for the car

[the0nly]

orange first will be better... because if you paint black at first, the orange wont be as lighty as you paint orange first...

[blue504life]

that kinda makes no sense at the end, but i get what your saying

sorry, but I am German and so it is not always easy to tell you, what I want to tell you:blush:

[blue504life]

sorry, but I am German and so it is not always easy to tell you, what I want to tell you:blush:

Oh, well didnt know that

[stang_racer]

well theonly it all depends on the paint he uses and how many coats he wants to put on it but more coats equal less body lines hmmmmm, you could try tapeing off... um ok this is hard to explain so if the fallowing dosent make sence nevermind it. ok tape the surface around indent in the door then paint it then wait for like 3 days till the paint FULLY cures then tape the black, with me so far??
then spray the orange and hope to hell you didnt miss the line up on the black against the orange, or you could spray it orange then spray the black or just do it orange then brush in the black

i see what your saying i think im going to lay the orange down first then tape around the doors, easyer than trying to get the tape in the door

thanks a RX7 model i would like to see a thread on that one day, i thiought about the wing being black its still an idea but i dont know how it will look but it could happen

[XmodzICON82]

you could always spray the black, and if you dont like it just spray the orange on it again....that's my opinion though....as for the rx-7 i'm trying to get 360 degree pics of the actual car so i can get this project rolling....

i might do a little photoshop work to change the color, as for a 360 degree view have fun its very hard to find one

[XmodzICON82]

i hear ya on the 360 degree view....i guess i can find pics of each side from different websites and print them out at home and go off of that....

[mm9295]

Thats sick!! I really like the pain job and interior.
