Grey spray, masked the front and wiped the the sides with a damp tissue, thanks for the comments, I may add armour and a light MG, but I think it needs either a skull motif on the bonnet or viper stripes!

:coffee: thanks for the "how to".

If you masked it then you did an excellent job with the masking tape on the windshield. (and the left front panel)



Go easy on the skulls and stripes with this one. I'd suggest you place a single model skull (3d that is not a paint job), a pair of hands or another single trophy, all weathered somewhere up front. As it is The car has this sinister "serial killer" vehicle atmosphere about it. Lots of skulls and stripes will ruin that.

My mother does card making in her spare time and she had big sticky backed circles so I cut up one of those to use luckily it was the perfect size!, The left front panel was hand painted I just followed the lines on the model (slowly) lol. I'm thinking of making it look like the car from death proof:

Especially like the mismatched front wing and the metal oat hanger aerial - makes it special but also very eighties...

Great job on the car, man! I'd suggest not adding too much bling-bling to it as I have to say the simplicity of the model as it is certainly has it's charm!
