^ mean comment. 

It looks good at other points in the video, i.e. 16.23. With some black Egress wheels, it would look very nice indeed I think. 

For close up shots, like the keyframe, you should trim all the flashing from the decals. Use a scalpel to (carefully) trace round them.

Hi Thanks, I made the wheels like that to match the white and orange in the Dremel detail work. I used to go crazy going close like that with the decals when I was younger I don't go to crazy anymore plus I run them a lot and it just gets beat down.

Not crazy about the wheels, but I like what you did with the body.  Nice VQS!

@shenlonco I like it.  I have to be honest the wheels reminded me of a PokeBall at first so had to set that image aside and take another look at the entire car.   It's a cool white/orange camo pattern to me.  I dig it.

I like that you stuck to few main colors to keep the theme.  I usually scheme my cars with max 3 main colors and one wild card (includes decals and any accessory on the car like NOS bottles or jerry can) not including black white and any metal or gray scale colors.  

This is mainly the reason why I don't use anodized blue parts as it clashes with the scheme of the car usually;  so unless it is completely hidden under the body I end up painting it silver or matte black or something less obvious.   Less is more in this aspect.  

Good job.

Thanks, the wheels look neat in slow motion though.

Thanks, it's something anyone I feel can do with a dremel and those round carving ball bits. The orange did start flaking off I knew it would because I used normal krylon paint.

@shenlonco Dremel?  Carving ball bits?   Were you quoting someone else?  What are you talking about?

I watched your video in sections.  I must have skipped over that part.  Anyway good job on the car.
