Just finished a crowd pleazer body for my evader ST, just seeing what you guys thought of it. As you can probobly see in the pics, theirs alot of places where the paint is screwed up. The reason its all messed up is because of two things, 1. the paint seeped through the masking tape in places, and 2. when I did the red it made the black bleed into it. I'm going to be doing some more bodies soon so im not too worried about teh goof ups on this one.

Features include...

Proline xxt crows pleazer body with autographics brand graphics (flames wre done by me though, thats why they are so mishapen LOL)
Novak dually ESC
Venom 13x2 fireball motor
Futaba radio system (3pm-tfs)
Venom Speedmeter
Almost all graphite chasis (lacking the rear shock tower, hubs, knuckle arms, and rear hubs)
Heatsink motor mounting plate
RPM Clawz rims
Proline tires (edges in front, gladiators in back)
Yellow bumper and motor gaurd
Aluminum Idler gear (coming in later this week)
Deans connectors
Robinson racing pinion (getting a RR absolute spur soon)
I guess thats everything

By the way, this was my first body done completely on my own.

I love the rat fink driver! That's awesome!

I think it looks fine - I'll bet that from 8 feet away, you have no idea where any of the masking mess-ups are.

Yeah once your a little ways away it looks fine (even the crude flames look good form across the room).

At least once I do my next body ill have hopefully learnt form my mistakes. My main problem was the paint I was using, I used 3 differnt brands of spray paint and appernetly the red and black werent compatible with each other. Also I think the reason It bled through the masking tape was becuase the paint went on so thick. If I was using my airbrush* it probobly wouldnt have happened.

* The reason Id didnt use the airbrush is because the button gets hung making the airbush stay on all the time.

You always learn something, that's for sure! And look on the bright side - at least it didn't mysteriously turn purple!

Looks good, pictures are kinda big, but the background looks like somthing that 'spaz stix' would do.
