Just did this one for my SCX24: “Buc-ee’s themed K-10”

I used TRX summit yellow and backed with TRX white.

Also used 3M fine line making tape, makes very clean lines.

Well poop my paint job didn’t turn out so well. I was doing well until I realized the vinyl I used for masks was the permanent adhesive type. Left behind a lot of adhesive residue when I pulled them off. Tried to clean it up with IPA, but the damage was done. I ended up not doing the rest of the masks and just blasted it with the final color and called it a day. 🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

Don't beat yourself up, still looks sick.
 
It will likely get crashed 5 mins into the first pass so I guess it's no big deal anyways 😜🤘
Yup, it will be a grass blade or corn field edition. lol

Wont see flaws when it's doing 100+;)
 
Doen't look terrible but I feel your pain, sucks when something like this happens, sucks the joy out of finishing it. On the other hand look how much quicker it was to finish. ;)
Yep I was cutting more stencils and was relieved that I didn’t have to weed them.
 
Well..after hours and hours of prep work and paint work I quickly realized ..after it was done that it will not fit the car I bought it for
Lol

Oh well ..I guess I’ll need to buy a car to fit it in now ..it’s for a 1/5 Fg car ..but apparently not the one I have

Nothing fancy, but new Talion body for my Kraton EXB.

Roof sliders printed with Nylon Carbon fiber blend to keep the body fresh during my consistent high speed crashes :)
