I would like to introduce myself. I am Dave C and I paint RC bodies. I will be updating this thread with new works as they are finished.

Please let me know if you see something you like and would like a new shell for your RC car, truck, helicopter or plane.

Thanks for looking!

Mike,

Thanks for asking, but my base level jobs start around $55-60 and go up depending on complexity of the design. And I'm one of the lower priced painters. Unless you want a strictly race-quality job (fine at 40 feet or 40mph). Those I can do a little cheaper.

Dave

Colors_By_Dave
09-25-2009, 10:24 PM
mGraves,

I have toyed with the Nascar idea, but so much of it is better suited for a guy with a vinyl cutter (to get the numbers and logos right on), so I've stayed more in the freehand stuff.

Vinyl cutters start at $150-200 so you really have to have a lot of guys wanting the effects they provide.

I do recognize that oval (and now RCGT) are going to be popular markets for custom painting, so who knows, I may own a cutter soon.

Nice work! I really like the 1/8 buggy body that goes from bright orange flames in the front to what looks like metallic white to black in the back. Please send me a PM with a quote to do something like this on a B44 body and a Slash body. Thanks.

Do you use faskolor stuff?

12-02-2009, 08:16 PM
Some. But also AutoAir and others. But Faskolor gave me lots of decals so every body gets one. LOL

Chance62
12-03-2009, 12:58 AM
LOL! I was curious I have used both...I like AutoAir but I cant seem to find a decent way to reduce Faskolor. I havent tried AutoAirs reducer but I would assume that it would work? I just cant get it thin enough to do fine shading. I paint a lot of 1/4 scale cars and Im also starting to paint much more 1/1oth stuff. Your stuff looks beautiful! By the way, I have a plotter so I do a lot of nascar stuff!!! LOL:wave:

I thin AA and Faskolors with AutoAir 4011, and it works great.

FasThinner is ok, but I prefer the AA product.

Some time back, Craig Fraser painted a 1/16th buggy for a magazine article. Someone had me do a similar scheme on his mini ERevo.
