can't wait to see what you have. That green one with the skulz is wicked. Might be getting a losi 8t I'll need a body for it. I do have a mugen mbx4 xr body that color scene would look good on it.

 

[maximusraylius]

Thx Brian. Done that one for a local guy that races at the track near me. Can fit probly 50 skulls on it I guess. Lol

 

[]-[0pa]0ng]

Max - If you can fit 69 skullz and on the roof add the number 69 we'll be talking soon

[maximusraylius]

Thx Shaun. Glad to have done it.

 

[xtremsavage]

Love the work. I can't wait til I finish gettin my garage cleaned out so I can start airbrushing. Hopefully I'll do nice paint jobs like those one day. Are you a member of any airbrush painting forums for RCs?

 

[maximusraylius]

no didnt know there was such a thing lol.. ill look into them.. mine just come out of my head .. I'm color blind to boot so not sure exactly what colors they truely are ..i see some the colors as they should be but others look the same so blue purple ..things like that look the same to me lol

 

[maximusraylius]

my newest lid i done for my puller...hope it looks good ..I'm kinda idk..i like it but not as dark of gray i was hoping for...so hard to get good pics on fresh lids they are to shiney... still have to build the custom aluminum blower for top of engine... sucks these lids don't come with nthe option of buying it with out the blower so its a smooth hood...

 

[Mickey]

looks good lyle. did i see you say too shiney? on this truck is that possible?

 

[maximusraylius]

thx mickey... yeah i said it lol... just hard to get good pics of the truck and the lid both throw off way to much glare..lol

 

[]-[0pa]0ng]

not sure what your shooting with. Take it outdoors with the light behind you and don't use a flash

 

[maximusraylius]

just using my cell phone ... cant adjust the white balance so the slightest glare from the chrome turns it white ..lol

 

[maximusraylius]

 

[Pope]
