Paints been sprayed. Next the drop shadows and pin striping will be done on the flames. Then clear to make it POP!

Looking killer!

todays progress!

the car with all of the colors laid out waiting to be pin striped and have the shadows applied:






Mixing the perfect grey for the pin stripes:


And the pin stripes go on:












Airbrushing the drop shadows:








Even without the clear coat you can start to see the orange pop in the sun:


pin stripes and shadows all done:












then the clear coat went on:
