First two are a replica I did of Ari Yallons RX7.com Drag car. if you have seen the car before you know about it. if not, then I know it just looks like an american flaged RX-7.... do a google search for Ari Yallon. make sure you find the newer pics and not the old pics of when it was just plain red.

Pic number 3 is just a glittered out 3rd gen I did. looks kinda cool in person.

Pic 4 is a 3rd gen that I messed up on, turned out ok, but not what I had in mind.

5th pic is a 350 Z I sold on ebay. turned out pretty good I thought. not my fav, but nice.

 

1st pic is an Altima I did that tuned out better then I hoped. really looked great in person. sold this on ebay.

2nd is a BMW road race car. looked GREAT in person! you should see the detail in the drivers compartment!

3rd and 4th is an Opal that I did that sucker is BRIGHT. look at the marlbe look in the blue. again looks better in person!

5th is another Opal I did. this wan one of my first bodys I painted.

 

Someday I may do an RX-8 for fun, but sadly they're not good bodies for racing. Here's my latest sedan shell, an Alfa.

 

Nice work! I hope to get that good with the air. for now I stick to the simple stuff that I can do.

 

Thanks! Just takes practice and a good airbrush helps as well.

If you want to do more marble stuff like you did on the one shell, blue with silver or a dark blue with a really light blue works nicely, if you want to do it with orange offset it with yellow and the same goes for green. A maroonish red with gold or black can yield some nice results as well. I use a plastic bag and apply the darker color first and then dab heavily right after I spray, applying the paint a little thicker than usual helps as well.

 

Even with rattle cans you can get some pretty nice results. I think masking and design is more important than how much skill you have with an airbrush.

 

Is the 8 a 200mm?

 

190, though they may make a 200mm as well.

 

yes but wfrom wht I have heard they no longer make the 200. if you can find one it is no longer made. at least this is what I was told.
I just bought 2 200mm RX8s off the internet cause my local hobby shop said they can not order them.

 

Man those shock struts are HUGE. They go right through the hood and trunk! I wish my car had an antenna like that.
