thanks, it turned out better than i was thinking. the lines came out perfect, which is where some of previous 2 tones have had flaws at. big thanks to BONDO for turning me onto the blue masking tape. its a little pricey, but worth every penny. ill never use the cheap masking tape again

What have you figured out to convert the pinion size of the Xceleron BL motor? I've been trying to source a 1.5mm inner to 2mm outer shaft that's stiff enough to use in this application....

i have experimented different ways on doing this.
http://www.xmodsource.com/forum/show...ight=brushless
there i tried 2 different ways of doing it. the easiest one was drilling out an xmod pinion and slipping it over the micro t pinion, but with the bigger teeth of the xmod gears, it didnt have enough starting torque, so i modified an xmod spur and mated it with a micro t spur, and it worked out rather well. thats my plans with this on too as the micro t spur is almost the same size o.d. as a gen 1 xmod spur gear.

waiting on some parts for the gen 1 monster, and the vette should be cleared this weekend, so until then i have some others i am working on as well

this one is for another member here
the camera isnt catching the full justice of this paint job. looks simple, but its intricate at the same time. ill get pics in the sunlight tomorrow to show.

its a blue / purple mix, gives it a color change effect without actually changing colors.

alright, some of you may have been wondering where the vette went. lets just say this is the first, last, and only vette i ever do...... they are cursed i tell you. this hood is on its 5 or 6th time being painted. kinda messed up huh? this has been trying thats for sure. lol
well enough talk.
what do you think?
dont mind the red spot or 2 white spots. thats minor compared to whats been going on with this car, a little sanding and it will be fine.

Looks like the face/head of the Devil. Is that what you were going for? Looks good, even if that's not what you were aimin' for.
