id kick anatoles ass.


Kinda weird paint. I know that when my paint jobs looked like that, it was purely accidental, but if it was intentional... uh... good job?

Kind of thick in some places , spray paint works a lot better (lays better/smoother) but good job, keep it coming. :cool:

I was looking through a copy of RC Driver and saw quite a few bodies with that swirly effect. I think it's like a "thing" right now.

How did you pull that off, BRH?

crazydave, the way i did it was by mixing a lighter shade and a darker shade of blue but not completely blending it so that when you look into the little paint bottle you can see the 2 colors kinda swirling into each other then you just paint it on with a brush lol im glad you like it

i remember learning about "marbleing" (sp?) in school. we used to take a tray, fill it with water and add an oil based paint which then floats to the surface then spreads out creating a film of paint on top of the water. you use one or more colours, swirl it around a little until you're happy with the pattern and lay paper over the top. the paint sticks to the paper, kinda like printing it.
anyone game to try it on a body? :???:
