Cheers Eyeayen,

Yea really pleased with this one, normally I don't try to push the design too far as I don't like to change the design when someone has asked for it but had a body going spare so decided to push it a little further, Just started drawing a design randomly on the body and went from there.

Came out nice I think

Definitely, looks real nice as I already said, you should put yourself out of your comfort zone a little bit as it teaches you new skills and stuff and as has happened here you'll surprise yourself with what you really can do !

Cheers Jon, Team Orsum96

I think I might have to bash a few more out like this one, had quite a good response to this style. I appreciate the advice and will be sure to keep trying new things and keep improving.

Thanks again guys

Liking your design on that, colours go well.

Is that LM on the concrete ?

Cheers Eyean, this is number one of two of the same design different colours tho (not quite finished the other yet)

As for the LM I'd probably say theres a good chance it is cos I do like to go out the front and throw it about about when masking up

Looks cool, the pin strip is nice and even too, looks well executed !

If I could change anything I think the pin line is too thick for the size of shell.

cheers guys, it was only a rush job so i dont think its to bad, i do agree about the size of the lines but i wanted to use more blue and wast to sure on best way of going about it without messing with the grey and silver.

Yeah that's a tricky one as it does match your shocks and stuff very well. Get you accessorising

Dunno what you could do, maybe have the design with 3 colours so the blue is no longer a pin line but part of the design ? It looks cool though despite what I said.

Electrical tape has given you some nice edges and it looks like you've got it to curve around the shapes real well. Good going !

There are 2 alternatives, you can get proper paint tape, 3M Fineline Tape Product code 6520. It's 3mm thick though so perhaps a bit too thick. It's a sort of greeny grey colour. They do a blue one too which is more flexible but if you leave it too long it comes off on it's own and it leaves a residue behind which is no good.

Alternative to that is jammydog.com who do many many widths of tape, perfectly good enough for this, cheap, because it's thin you can sort of draw with it and get nice tight curves.

Or you could buy some liquid mask and a scalpel which I must say I'm sort of favouring at the moment, no blow throughs or miss masks, all in one go, nice and easy.

Wow !

That looks ace, lots of detail and nice little bits in the design

Did you liquid mask it, or use vinyl cut masks ?
