LJxtreem- paint questions

Post by DeWsE »

Hey Mock,

Just wondering if you have any pictures of your old paint job and in particular the air brushing it used to have.

Did you do this yourself?

No, mock didn't do the first filler (oops!) paint job on critta. The colour was supposed to be holden tiger mica and that's what the engine bay and interior was. The colour ended up a "custom" mix, much more bronzey brown than tiger. The guys who sprayed it ran out of paint and as it was a custom mix, they couldn't get more so they fogged into brown towards the back of the tray and the bottom rear edges of the cab.

The roof was brown too.

The airbrushing consisted of barbed wire mostly breaking up the boundary between the brown and the "bronze", and huntsman spiders under the doorhandles :cool:

The interior was camo because it clashed with the bodywork.
