Race Car and RC Car

[cptcorn]

Local driver here. Tear it apart guys/gals... Some clipping in areas, I only had measurements for the old body, so when the new body was made a few things were changed and didn't line up perfectly...

Driver & photographer? Dude, you are GOOD!!!!!!

:ROFLMAO:


your first post, I assumed you were THAT driver.

 

[cptcorn]

Haha, nope not the driver, he's a customer of ours, and the RC car is for one of his sponsors, who's a customer of ours.

The RC car is more of a friendly bribe... I think you would find the patience.. .haha

How do you do it? I know these are polycarbonate and when I raced rc cars I did it the old fashioned way.... Polycarbonate paint inside the shell. I was limited to simple airbrushing and masking tape. We are talking pre digital here

I still have my Associated RC10 from the mid 80's. Started out with a Tamiya Frogger. I worked at a hobby shop so I was able to "soup it up" with all of the hop up parts. That's what they called it back then

Just decal the outside of the body. Kinda like doing the full size car.

I could not see seams and those seem like such sharp corners to follow

I still sprayed a base color on the inside. It'd really look not so well if it was completely wrapped. There would be obvious gaps. This red body in my opinion is only 'OK'. Red is hard color to match, side panel, sail panel, roof, nose, all separate pieces

Thanks, team Canon over here, you should sell that Nikon junk

Here is a black one that turned out a lot better. Black is a bit easier to match.

Our shop used to be right next to a Hobby shop and people with their RC cars would come in and as for decals for their rc cars, I used to hate that.
There is no money in doing rc cars that's for sure. At least the customer wont want to pay for it.
