Sorry, I'll try to make some simpler patterns and post them before I start the next tut. I was just trying to draw some of my best flames, didn't really consider how hard it might be for someone else to cut. My bad.

Oh and I forgot to say, good idea taking the car out in the sunlight to catch the color shift, that worked pretty good.

lol, you know i was juss kidding, right? lol no need to say sorry! but easier flames'd be great....

yeah, that was pretty much the only way i could capture the change was with sunlight

that is one hell of a job midgetman! i LOVE that color! my uncle had an rx7 showcar a few years back that was painted just about that same color with some mad bling bling rims.

the only difference between your bit version and the real car i remember is that he had some whitish/aqua decals on the side... they were women... without tops

they were covering up their unmentionables though

thanx guys..... the paint was easier than i thought...at first i didn't wanna do it in case i fucked up, but i went and did it myself anyway... it was real easy. 2 coats of the black primer, 3 coats of the color, and 2 coats of clearcoat... and all three of the cans came together, on sale for $9!!! what a great deal.

the dub city rims were a REAL pain in the ass to apply.the hardest part was the front rims... (pin removal)
