Quite pleased with it for my 1st attempt at one.Although my hands shake that much when painting i have gone over a few bits,even after fags and beer it will still the same!

Did you blow it away with the paint gun or were the tyres planted.

Cheers mate
lol at the camber,it reminded me of a koolart pic when i was finishing lol
pissed off at running off into the red with the white,only discovered an amazing substance called "maskol" near the end,could have made a miles better job in all fairness,i smoke and drink and STILL couldnt stop shaking when painting,i think my "recreational" experiences may have caused this L0L
Thanks David,and everyone else for the kind comments.

Looking good Andy, how long has it been since you started doing this now then LOL, im sure you were mid build in your first house i think lol



The spray gun (for those who dont know) is a right tiny little thing and it connects to an aerosol can of compressed air, like the type you get in stationery supply shops for blowing dust out of keyboards and computers:thumb:

My GF is obsessed with them, there must be about 40,000 upstairs ready to take over the house lol
She got me a Corrolla rally car when I was off work with my gammy hand in summer, and it's almost finished now

You get them from ebay or any decent model/toy shop.
Although the rally cars are getting difficult to get hold of nowadays.
