Yeah did you have anyone style in mind, Daim or INSA are good with both design and colours and Seak one does those mental things which would possibly too complicated for a shell but might provide some inspiration.

Well its been a while but heres my most recent bodies, 1 I did a while ago for Team Ardon for the 24hr Ardent event , then the next was fresh out of the lab today, a few mistakes that I'm less than happy about but in the flesh has a great 3d effect and is really nice and bright.
Edited** new photos hopefully showing a bit more of the 3d look and closer to the true colours |

hey piggy d, nice to see you posting again
not keen on the colors on the graff one but the design is cool dude |

Initially I thought the crazy one was for the 2012 Olympics - as it bears similarities to the logo
I have thought about some 3D action on my designs - just means even more work though !! |

Cheers guys, The design was overly complex to do using liquid mask (I wouldnt do it again), too much cutting and too many layers of colours to create the effect.
The colours havent come out as nice in the pics but look alot better in real life, though very bold . |

Both look cool, the graph one is very DAIM inspired but I like it, you've captured what he's about !
And the other one, just pure simplicity, it always works |

Cheers Ian,
Yea did it in Daim style and tried to capture his graffiti style, its part taken from one of his designs and some slight alterations to get it to fit right on the body. edited my photos which i hope show the design better. |

Cheers matey nice to see you on here, hope your doing well.
Heres one I painted for myself, I took a design from I loved from shop ufo and changed a few elements and gave it my own twist, also did one for a friend at the same time but no pics at mo (a little simpler/plainer than this tho) Its my favourite body I ever painted so far and decided I'm keeping the scheme (colours and stars at least) for all my bodies now . Anyway hope you guys like it. |

Love it, the use of the stars and little splats are awesome, all goes really well together.

Cheers Steve,

Beautiful. Love the stars. Been trying to freehand them, but just too small. Never occured to me to crank up the plotter and cut out the 'starry' part and blow a dot in the centre. Doh!
Must try something like this next... Keep up the great work. J

Cheers mate, I also tried freehand first but like you say there just so small but either a stencil or vinyl cut stars will work great.
The RCS starstruck stencil is very cool, I will definately using it alot lol, |

When I used to do the crash helmets all the stars were masked with the plotter and then as you say just a dot in the centre. Semi precision
