It's looking great so far.

Wait...was it white to start? Or are you painting it white? Other than that, shiny!

[darkendblades]

thanks and it was yellow from the get go and i did some sanding on the stock bk front bumper added the mild sides and rear bumper and now im needing a small fine paint brush to paint all the stuff that needs to be other colors lol like black and orange and i think some yellow but then i also need to do the headlight lense's "black" and the roof needs to be done black also.

looking good so far man, a method that bondo uses that may help the apperance of this thing is putting a fine black line around the doorjambs, the hood lines, roof lines and such to make it look more realistic and break up that white paint a bit, but awesome job. if you can find some smoke transparent paint that would work awesome for the headlight and the tail lights.

yeah at first thats what i was aiming for then i was playing Gran turismo 4 and i bought the concept nsx and i liked it so im doing it like that now lol with a twist of RedSXmod idea.

[xmodsnut]

GT5 will be out soon and they say it will be pushing some of the limits of the PS3's blue ray system.

[darkendblades]

yeah ive herd lol but i love the idea of the ferrari in it now lol i can do a beat down with a GT40

[xmodsnut]

no one can beat the pikes peak escudo when it was souped up and the settings set for the one track. I cant remember what GT it was and you could get it to do 2000MPH plus, I think it was 2.

[darkendblades]

it was GT3 lol i did it but i also got the toms supra to do wheelies lol

[darkendblades]

updated pics in first post

yea the escudo pikes peak in GT2 was sick, i have 3 but dont know how fast it is.

looks good man, real nice basecoat.
have fun with the rest of that car.....painting details on the NSX is a pain in the butt. not too mention all of the tricky sanding.
your lucky you dont have the wild kit on there, that ones even worse....

the back where the exhaust is was a huge pain......


for future reference though, when your doing the black lines,do it ontop of a clearcoat.
this will give you cleaner lines since you can rub off anything that isnt in the crease.

once the clear is dry enough to handle,grab your brush and black along with a paper towel.
start off by doing a 1/4" of the crease at a time,wipe over it in the same direction your painting in with your finger,clean your finger on the paper towel and do another 1/4".

if you do this over the clearcoat it will rub right off with your finger.
it tends to smear over basecoats though. this usually results in having to break out the rubbing compound.
