Finally got my v3 shell done, and did my sons shell a while ago. Broke out the airbrush, i haven't painted an RC shell for about 18 years! Have done a few helicopter canopies, but they are relatively easy IMO. This is the first time ive used liquid mask too, eveything was cut by hand, have learnt a lot on these 2 shells!

Thanks :) the v3 is certainly much easier to paint without all those square edges on the side!

Not painted one of these in 18 years... You've done real well then !!!

They both look tidy, nice colours, nice pin lines.

Good job ! :thumbsup:
