I usually don't do a lot of paint for people other than myself and a few friends. Rick asked me to do one, and since he has been so helpful in with my efforts, I happily obliged...
This is a XXTCR body with the LXT paint scheme. Hopefully he will post some pics of it after it gets mounted.

Yellow wheels with red painted discs.
I use primarily Parma fascolor, but my secret weapon is the water based acrylics in the art section of walmart. 99 cents a piece. Can be mixed with the fascolor to get different hues, or used straight after a little thinning.
If I have large areas to cover I will break out the Pactra rattle can.

Fascolor Fasred, Fasblue, Fasyellow, White and black. Pretty easy, no shadowing or pearls, just straight color on the boxart.
