I'm just getting settled into my new location and still setting up my paintbooth but wanted to share some of the work I have done in the past. More comming soon.

Nice work. I love the last buggy.

Thanks! I painted that one a few years back for my MIP 410L converted Team Car. Still have it too and I just unpacked her today.

You have a lot of Talent. I dont care for the wild paint myself but I really can respect the amount of work that went into makeing them. I like more real cars like we ran back when I was younger. do you do any of them? back when I raced we ran cars like Tide, Budweiser things like that even on our dirt cars. you do great work though.

Thanks a lot! Really thank you! One of my favorite things about this hobby is painting bodies unless I'm having a block in creativity.... I invested in a nice vinyl plotter a few back to be able to paint logos and such. With that being said I can do replicas like the Tide and Bud cars. Some logos are a lot hared than other though. I have some old School stuff in the works for some of my collection and even some dirt oval too. Maybe they will hit more of what you like. I paint for a few racers in the US and Japan but since I'm in the Military and move often so it's hard to keep regulars. Keep checking here I will post them as I paint. Thanks again for the very nice compliment!
Cheers!

no problem I use to paint a lot of stock cars. I know how hard this stuff is. painting on the inside sucks. I like hard bodys a lot better.

What body is this, can it fit a gold pan, and is there a replica of it?

It is the AE Viper body. It is still in production and is easy to find. Tower Hobbies and AMain Hobbies both stock this body.

Thanks for that info! Could I possibly get you to design and paint a body similar to the one above? I'm a little torn between the Viper and Protech II style bodies. I like the team orange/ gray/ and possibly a carbon fiber look incorporated into it as well. Not sure how it would look without the white though.
