Here's the new shell for my B44, my third shell to date, hopefully they are getting better :o
Be honest guys, i can take it :D
Many thanks to Jon for the custom masks :thumbsup: top work buddy
Just wanted to say a big thank you to Jon & Ian for all the great advice, i would be flapping in the wind if it wasn't for you guys
:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[eyeayen]

Nice, very good for only your 3rd attempt Stu, marbelizing is a nice effect, you've got good colour that go well together, it's gonna be quite dark on the track from a distance though.

The only thing I don't like is the super chunky window frame but everything else is super cool. Good going fella :thumbsup:

[gainsy]

Thanks for your praise Ian, much appreciated :)
Yeah i don't like the window either, just thought i would do something different to the norm but i guess the old saying "if it aint broke dont change it" applies here
Your right it may be quite dark on the track, that way no one will see me going off it so often :D not decided if i am going to paint the wing yet but if i am having trouble placing the car right i could always paint it the same colour as the lettering on the side :)
On to the undertray next

[eyeayen]

Nice one Stu, good of you to give Mike credit too !

Hex's look cool :) and all the text is super neat ! Bet you're glad you bought that cutter !

[Mike Parker]

Yeah totally agree with Ian, looking good Stu :) I do need to get a cutter in my life!!

As a painter I'm pretty easy going about the whole affair, but when it comes to the design I've been painting for Pete (Pedros) for a few years now, he's had the design for a hell of a long time going back to when Tel Atkinson used to paint full time so I can't take all the credit :)

[eyeayen]

I do need to get a cutter in my life!!

You do Mike ! In all the years I've been on this planet I still think my cutter is one of the best things I ever bought. Of course they're not as good without the knowledge of the software but that comes in time too. I think I've learned more pushing myself with the cutter and seeing what it can do and struggling until it did what I wanted it too ( more the software than the cutter ), now I don't think there is anything it can't do... well portraits and stuff aren't so effective with it. It's more than just for lettering too !

Get one Mike, it's the future and I promise you will not regret spending the money.

[gainsy]

Many thanks for kind words guys & Mike i would never nab someone else's design without at least having the decency to ask first ;) that just wouldn't be cricket now would it :)

Here's my latest work, a Turbo Optima Mid shell for Mark
This one drove me to the end of my sanity doing the lettering but i love it & i hope you all do too

Ironman inspired shell for my tamiya supershot

Iron Shot... :lol: I see what you've done there.

Tidy job mate, the colour looks spot on too, the circuity not being symmetrical is a nice touch too, adds more interest to the body.

[percymon]

Ironman inspired shell for my tamiya supershot


Looks great - would love to see a pic of that mounted on the chassis

[gainsy]

Thanks guys, at the moment it is in the planning stage but once finished it will have a carbon chassis, vintage kyosho gold shocks, ironman driver etc etc, here's a pic of it as it is atm with the template chassis fitted, will be very different when finished, once complete i will post up the finished car :)

[eyeayen]

Cover that cardboard mock up in resin and you'll be well away, no need for carbon fibre then !
