First Paint Job

[dvinesquirrel]

this is a Proline 1980 chevy body for the lst / revo 3.3. it isnt a perfect fit but i think it fits for a MT style. i used Duplicolor ruby red metallic (something like that) which i had laying around from touching up my 1:1 chevy, and a gloss black for the stripes and windows. being my first attempt i of course screwed up a little with the masking which can be seen in the front end. the pictures don't do this color justice

i personally think they are a good offroad bashing tire. has worked on hard packed straight away to sugar sand hill climbs. a broader chevron in the middle would be nice as well as a stiffer side wall. alot of flex in them but that has helped absorb some nasty impacts.

Love the colour! Looks like my buddies 84 c30.
Did the paint seep under the hood mask? Other than that, looks awesome.

looks like a great paint job to me!! and the fact that the body is a bit small makes it look more like a real 1:1 monster truck i think!!!
