Ive decided that I need to step it up a gear when im painting my shells.
No more easy straight lines unless the customer asks for it.

Here are two TwentyTwo designs, ones mine and another one is a customers. If you can remember back, this twentytwo design is a replica of a 8ight EU shell I did a while back.

Customer - he ended up giving me a differnet shell to the one used in the design, so ill have to work my way around it.

Mine - I was going to do it the same as my other designs, but like I said, up a gear.
Ive got some chrome pin stripe in there too but couldnt make the preview look good so just put gray there instead.
Also the green and yellow gradient is going to be more like a green and yellow drop shadow but ceebz making it look too perfect on the design

I mainly just charge for materials because I just want to practice but some people charge over £50 (shell not included) which is like $70 ish in the US.

Each shell has about a week turn around time, but because im at Uni for the week and I race Fridays night and Sundays all day, it can take me 2-3weeks because I only really have a couple of hours a week to do it.

I just need some more shells now because I wanna get painting

If all goes well with the above then im gonna try a bit more of a complex design.

I doubt you will find anything to do with RC models until you reach about page 10701!

I think I'm gonna change it up a bit as I've just seen a really cool design that I think I improve on.
