Sick Green Flames 4 VDM

I was doing some mods for VDM, and he's hooking me up. So I wanted to give him a little something extra. So I offered to flame out his LXX Beetle. He wasn't saying no.
So here's you car now VDM.
I liked the sick green the car came in, but alot of the LXX paint mask were put on crooked. I thought I could keep the green, and clean up the areas where the paint mask had been crooked. I faded some Aqua in the front, and layed Charcoal over the rest
Pics do not do this job justice. The flash makes the Aqua blend into the green to much, and you can't really see how smooth the fade really looks. This shade of charcoal always looks black in pics, but really it's a dark metallic grey. I would have spent half the day trying to get the pictures just right, but in this case I knew VDM was going to be able vouch for it when he got it.
So here it is...Hope you like it VDM. I'm proud of it.

Glad you like it VDM, but just wait 'til you get it. The pics really do not do it justice. The way the aqua blended with that green is just sick. There's a whole blue green shade missing from the pics. Maybe you can take some better pics when you get it.
...and yeah Cabo, I love the color combo. It's that kinda sick combination that would get Ed 'Big Daddy' Roth's Rat Fink seal of approval. (RIP Big Daddy
)
I gotta find a can of paint with this shade of green so I can do it again.

a moment of silence for Big Daddy...
Nice flames crazydave, the color combo might be my favorite yet. That looks like the car Voodoo should be drivin'.

That looks great!
I say we start a pool to buy Crazy Dave a new camera. Having done a lot of photography, I can tell we're not seeing the whole story here. It's a crime, really, that we are all deprived of the true glory of a Crazy Dave paint job.

Hey cool, thanks bro, nice to know someone got your back....Hey wait a minute!
I like Superfly's idea better. I'll take something with SLR, thank you.
Seriously I think I just need a flood light, and to know WTH I'm doing. I've always sucked at pictures, never understood why.
Hey Sezziz, you really want one? PM me I'm sure I could hook you up.
