Ladies and Gents! I give you...



...the worst paint job in all of history:






It's a long story of how it came to be that bad, but suffice it to say that me, and paint, don't get along very well. Originally it was going to be black fading into the Tamiya Copper colour you see there, but the supplier sent me blue instead of black, so I thought I'd just try solid copper with a chrome grille. Big mistake.

The masking bled paint everywhere, the masking tape itself left a load of gunky residue (hence the mess on the front of the bonnet), and the rest of the paint came out patchy due to it being so cold in my garage I think. Still...I think it kinda looks like a bit of a rustbucket lol (the mess up front kinda looks like bare metal when you see it in person).

It's only going to get beaten to death anyway, so doesn't really matter I guess...
