holy ****
you got some skillz, why dont you do this for a living.......
are you the same guy that airbrushes rc model shells off of maxbashing ?
I used to work in a model shop where half the maxx bashers hung out so painted the odd chell or two, but you may be thinking of someone else... I painted 'shreks' car, if thats the one your thinking of?

No real mods, i prefer the cases as they are... The top will be modded to accommodate a double rad, and ive made the hole bigger in the base tray. thats about it though
Update is on its way, just gotta sift through the pics

Okay,
im going to go into a little more detail about how the rust effect is achieved, and probably put everyone off airbrushing for life in the process he he!
The first step is thesilver base coat. TO be honest, this didnt even need to be silver, grey would have worked too, but silver gives a little more depth to the colours once they are on ( this could be a bad thing though! )
once the silver base is on, solid black is used to detail, this will be the first layer of black, and there will be another 2-3 layers / patterns to follow. Not all the detail is painted into the first one.
From black i use a colour refered to as molly orange, its a bit like the colour of those orange ford focus's or, indeed an orange! - very bright!
You will notice that fresh rust is also this colour, and when sprayed loosely ontop of the silver starts to look like fresh rust at its early stages. i spray this in a prety random pattern, some bit heavier than others.
Next is a semi transparent orange, which may as well be yellow... I'm sure you will aggree at this point it looks like i have lost the pot... why that hell is he spraying yellow? it looks horrid doesnt it?
the yellow is re enforced by a darker root beer like colour, sprayed in streaks.
next more black is added and all the colours are darkened down - this makes the biggest difference!
A little red and green ( i know it should never work but it does! ) are added and jobs a good n.
All the panels are done now and currently drying over night before i finish the blister effect and clear coat them, Then i promise... the interesting part will begin!
thanks for watching.
