Default Scion tC Release 1.0

Hey guys,
I took the airbrush out again for the first time in 3 years, so this is a little experiment project for the airbrush.
I'm going for the Scion tC Release 1.0 look, without the 7-spoke wheels. It will have the stock wheels painted gunmetal (I paint wheels! Let me know if you need any done!) shown below, and then some custom deep dish wheels for the wide body kit.

Hopefully I'll get the airbrush down by time I'm done with this, and you'll see more paintjobs, and I also may start to offer a paint job service in addition to my wheel painting.

In the pics, the paint is just wet-not that shiny (yet). There isn't any clear coat, just the main color coat so far. Clear will be on soon when I have the time.

Here's the body after primer:


My masking skills have gone downhill lately so I may have to redo the windows.
Here's with the wet paint (real finish is on the dried rear bumper but that will change)




And the wheelset (again, I do paint wheels, must be in good condition though)



The custom deep dish set will be one of the ones from here:



Here is a picture of the real Scion tC Release 1.0


So I'll decide pretty soon. The look for the widebody wheels will be similar to my previous white Camaro project.
Not sure about other plans other than the whole set painted, maybe a flow paint chassis again. Look to see this one sold when it's done.

Thanks! Stay tuned.

I believe *I hope im right* the tray is actually just a wheel kit from a rs kit of wheels very good for painting wheels in too. The rims I think are custom made or are mini-z or some other form of RC.

The tray is an xmods wheel set tray-perfect! That's where I spray all my wheels.

The little rims are the spinners, yes they do in fact work

Alright, I cannot get the youtube tags to work, so here's the link:

I'm not going to tell you how to make them but if you buy a set from me when they're being sold, of course I'll send you the instructions.

The Scion will have deep dish, not spinners. Although they can become spinners.

Yeah the paint made it look a bit metal, like a cupcake making tray.
Actually I'll be starting a forum auction on them soon. I'll contact you if you're interested.

About the Scion, paint started peeling in an area so I'll have to get that redone.
However some news- I'll be painting Noturday's Camaro!
