For a body like that I would charge 20.00 too paint it (2 hrs work and supplies) , its was pretty easy too do .

I just copied the graphic from Castles website , printed it up too the correct size , then drew it on the body (with liquid mask on the inside) and then gently trace it with a #2 blade Xacto knife , peel then paint , peel then paint , done !

Thanks lutach , it looks alot better in person . The candy blue backed with silver metalflake really pops in the sun , there is silver metalflake in the black outline of the snake and the hood and roof scoop also , but the camera doesnt pick it up .

That's how I usually color all my bodies if they don't come painted already lol. A few light coats of blue and some silver to back it up. I love blue .

Sick dude, I wish I could paint like that!

Not to mention I love blue bodies, it matches the wheel hex's!


If it aint broke, break it, then fix it.
