Shells By Matt Coleman!
 
Hey Guys,

Just thought i would share some of my work with you :D

I started airbrushing back when i was in Uni doing product illustration,
well until the macbook took over!

These are the first shells i have done. I'm pretty happy with how they have turned out, especially the Durango shell!

Big thanks to RCS for supplying the paints etc... and for putting up with my endless question :D:woot:

Enjoy!

coleman758 24-12-2011 08:24 PM

Tonight's effort!

Its the first time i have picked up the airbrush in about 2 years!
and the first time i have used liquid mask! (Its magic stuff!)

I'm pretty happy with it :D

A bit of chrome pinstriping would have been good though! ahh well
next time! :D:D

coleman758 24-12-2011 10:16 PM

Thanks guys!

I need to get a few more colours of paints!
And a few more shells!

I can recommend Harlows Durango shells the quality is fantastic!
I have a FS2 bulldog masked up ready to be cut, I think il try a similar design
But with the crome pinstripes!

Nas 26-12-2011 09:52 PM

U1timate PigDog 27-12-2011 02:34 AM

Good work, looks great. :thumbsup:

coleman758 27-12-2011 03:23 PM

Check this out!

Its an FS2 Bulldog, I had spare. Now i sold the FS2 its just sat here!
Its taken bloody ages to get all the pinstripes done!

But i'm really happy with it, you should have seen my grin when i pulled the over spray film off!

ENJOY! - It will also be in the For Sale section later :thumbsup:

(P.S Thanks to Mike Parker for the inspiration!)

Body looking really great, very impressed indeed. It looks really nice and I'm sure someone would love to buy it off you.

Excellent work.:thumbsup:

Mike Parker 27-12-2011 03:42 PM

Yep looks good Matt :thumbsup: good choice in colours & the design sits on the shell nicely.

eyeayen 27-12-2011 03:49 PM

Great effort Matt, a gargantuan amount of pinlines, looks cool with the Chrome though fella, although I think you need to buy some new colours to use :lol:

coleman758 27-12-2011 03:54 PM

Lmao Ian,

That all i have at the moment, they are the colours i normally run.
I need to order some more, but I'm away on holiday tomorrow until next week, So I will be ordering when i get back!

Hey guys!

Well I have pretty much ran out of clear shells to paint now :thumbdown:

So... If anyone wants any shells painting give me a shout. I'm not looking for much just really to cover materials and give me something to paint!

Thanks Matt

coleman758 05-01-2012 09:17 PM

Yes i know.... Same design :D

This time its for me! I'm really happy with this even more so that the previous bulldog shell.

RC BOMBSHELLS 05-01-2012 10:13 PM

Well played sir!
 
I am getting dizzy just thinking about all those cuts. Great work. You have inspired me to try some of those multicolor licks. Now if I can only find the motivation......

:D

U1timate PigDog 06-01-2012 12:23 AM

Thats one odd looking body but you've done another great paint job :thumbsup:

VillageIdiot 06-01-2012 01:13 AM

nice work but bin the pink already, :lol:

coleman758 06-01-2012 01:14 AM

Its not quite as bad as the Vega, to be fair i wasn't so keen at first. But its really growing on me! Its looks so much better in the flesh!

I have a few more shells lined up so keep an eye out :D

coleman758 07-01-2012 01:43 AM

eyeayen 08-01-2012 09:43 PM

Nice lines Matt, very good sharp points, nice design !

coleman758 10-01-2012 10:08 AM

And another!

First time trying out the "Marble" effect, Its looks pretty sweet :thumbsup:
Sprayed the black in really heavy attacked it with cling film then backed it with RCS chrome. The pictures make it look weird though!

U1timate PigDog 10-01-2012 09:11 PM

That looks so much cooler on the dex410 body, there both wicked cool paint jobs but the nicer shell really brings out the design Looks great !!:thumbsup:

eyeayen 11-01-2012 12:38 AM
