Title: Dragster paint, complete
Post by: tcoupekyle on September 06, 2022, 07:07:02 PM

Finally got clear on the dragster pretty much done, need to sand some bugs out and buff but I'm happy with it. Although I'm biased and have low standards lol

Actually first one this big. I’ve painted 2 helmets and a couple little panels. But this first this large.
There’s plenty of flaws… lol but I find I can live with them.

Haha thanks man! I pretty much agree some of the whoopsies I’ll get covered in pinstripes and maybe others with stickers lol
I hope you liked your helmet!

Speaking of pinstripes, did you do the striping too? If you did, THAT is some real artistic talent.
