I now it is pretty bad but it is my first one.

looks like something outa mad max movies.

umm heres a tip: next time dont make a topic sound like a kiddie porn thread

oops I never thought about the name that way. I made a big mistake there!

haha its ok. im pretty happy that there was a car behind the link. its good to see a beginner more worried about performance over looks.

hey not bad - gotta start learning somehow

keep modding - you'll only get better and better

A little wet sanding with light grit goes along way.practice , practice ,its a good start!

Hey thinking of making a pickup and I want to know how to fade light blue into dark black. Can someone explain haw to me?

prep your stuff, primer out of the way, etc., etc.
I'm assuming you're using spray cans...

paint your "dark" black first (isn't "light" black called "grey"? lol)
let it dry - blah blah blah (I'm assuming you've read on the boards here or know the basics of painting)

now get your light blue - get the car ready, get the can ready...
you're going to spray from 1 end of the car only, depending on if you want it fade from light (front) to dark (rear) or dark (front) to light (rear).
you're going to spray at a slight downward angle to the top of the car.

practice makes perfect man - good luck!

I also would suggest "testing" on something other than the body you just spent several hours prepping. Like some beat-up Hot Wheel car or other cheap toy car. Hell, you could practice on the plastic that the body came in. You just don't want to be learning about the spray pattern and flow on the real body.

Here is my new bit body. (Not the truck I was talking about making that is sometime soon though!)
