Been having a play with my airbrush for a month or 2 now, struggled at first but brought a better airbrush and now happy(er) with the results i am getting, below are the shells ive done in the order i painted them (minus a few that people cant see yet)

Looks good!

The airbrush work looks pretty tidy, Just keep practicing with the knife!
I like the C4.1 shell the best!

Looking good! - especially for a newbie... you're not afraid to try different techniques/effects it seems - certainly more adventurous than me:D

Gosh - the RC-Labs are a blast from the past, I still have two of them (7.6 & a GT3) Didn't realise that you raced one for a bit Paul?

The pics dont do Matts shells justice, theres a really nice pearl in the white that isn't picked up by the camera.
