Somebody asked me that the other night and I didn't know then either.
Nice paint, Joe!
I intend to live forever! So far, so good.

Joe,This one I just finished for myself. "Bansai Racing" is an Outisight Chevron B16 for our Flexi GT Class. It's powered by Ah So Fast Motorsports.
Hershman should love this one.
That car is absolutely beautiful. If I didn't trash my cars in two races, I would have you paint me one.
Really, really pretty. Whewwwwwwww!!!! Wish I could paint like that.

Your painting is amazing.
How long have you been painting?
What kind of training do you have? Have you taken many classes/courses or are you self taught?

How long have you been painting? Since around the age of 10 with an airbrush. Seriously got into it when I started painting slot car bodies in the 60s at around age 14.
What kind of training do you have? Have you taken many classes/courses or are you self taught? Pretty Much self taught through practice and reading for the airbrush techniques. The hand lettering is all practice and lotsa concentration.

OK folks. The body for what I consider to be the most beautiful slot car I have ever seen, touched, carried, etc. is done. Per the requirements given here is the "Starship" that is sitting on Rick Thigpen's beautiful piece of work. It's complete with the spolier and clear covering of the cockpit per Tony P.

Is there any way you could come up with a how to on painting bodies?
Would be a great help to us 45 year old kids just getting back into the hobby.
I just attempted 2 paint jobs,,luckily one was a 2 tone easy job,,but my other came out TOTALLY wrong,,but I just went somewhere else with it and it came out fair
Tips like what Paint to thinner ratios and simular mix for acrylic would help lots
Thanks
